Thanks to SeaweedFS, I've set up two replicas of the BSD Cafe's media. One is on a backup server (for disaster recovery purposes only, also containing the hourly zfs-autobackup backups), and the other is on a Raspberry Pi 4 running FreeBSD, which is one of my home backup servers - just one meter away from my desk.
I've also configured Nginx in a jail, so when I'm at home, the BSD Cafe's media is served directly from the local replica.
The performance is lightning fast.

After conducting some performance tests, I believe #SeaweedFS will be the new S3-compatible software for BSD Cafe media storage. The results have been promising

OK, Minio has decided to drop all the useful GUI features from the open-source (CE) version, making them exclusive to the paid version. More, they'll only provide "security fixes for severe issues" and no new features/development.

Personally, I prefer software that doesn't offer a certain feature at all, rather than one that, at some point, removes it and reserves it for "paying" customers.
It almost feels like a betrayal, in my eyes.

It's probably time to move the #BSDCafe media over to Garage or Seaweedfs.

I'm setting up Minio in the Tuist server codebase so that we can do offline development. Before this change the local server pointed to a remote S3 solution, which doesn't work when you have external contributors #s3 #minio

I don't know if anybody noticed #ZeroFS yet, but it seems there is a completely user space-implementation of #NFS and #blockstorage on top of #S3 #objectstorage: https://github.com/Barre/zerofs

Including a demo running #ZFS on top of it which essentially allows geo-redundant ZFS volumes: https://asciinema.org/a/728234 & https://github.com/Barre/zerofs?tab=readme-ov-file#geo-distributed-storage-with-zfs

I don't see no #FreeBSD port yet, but if that really works it would be absolutely awesome.

A new major version of #Garage had been released: 2.0.0

Garage is an #S3Compatible distributed object storage service designed for #selfhosting at a small-to-medium scale.

It runs on old PCs. It's build to be resilient with geographical redundancy.
