Tourists have been carving their names into shit for - and I'm not exaggerating here - thousands of years.

It's far more likely that Google, AWS, and Microsoft are using tape for high-volume, long-term storage.
According to diskprices.com, these are the approximate cost of a few different storage media (assuming one is attempting to optimize for cost):
- Tape $0.004 - $0.006 / GB
- HDD $0.009 - $0.012 / GB
- BluRay $0.02 - $0.04 / GB
- SSD $0.035 - $0.04 / GB
- microSD $0.065 - $0.075 / GB

The root path for kbin is currently always "all". I actually have a PR up right now to change this to what people actually expect to happen.
There isn't a native mobile app, but this website is what's known as a "progressive web application". This means that you can just add it directly to your home screen and it will act app-like. See this thread for exact iOS instructions. Android is similar but does depend on which browser you're using.
Honestly, I feel like the bigger issue is the immense flood of content that's going to pour out of Threads. I'm not sure if many of the self-hosted instances will be able to federate with it and continue to function.
