If I were to create my own instance federated with all the other instances, as of today, how much data would I be storing, since I would make a copy of all the content?
I know this will vary a lot, but I’m looking for a ballpark figure to have an idea. I don’t think it would be a lot, but I can’t find an estimate anywhere.

@pimeys @knighthawk0811 yes, that sounds more privacy friendly, #Friendica also has a proxy function, it is also important that the proxy is just accessible for logged in users… so it get’s more complicated. Otherwise bad people will posts media some place and link it in scam pages/emails and such.
