@polarity@social.bitwig.community FYI, the Mastodon team just got some funding that may ultimately help you. One of the things they will be working on is new mechanisms for remote image storage. See: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/04/sovereign-tech-agency-funding/ Doesn’t help you *today* but they say they are looking to do this in 2026, so maybe in the months ahead.
