projects like Garage allow to do so in a distributed way.
Really? Does this mean that different instances could share a bucket? Do they have to trust each other? I’ll have to jump off the minio train anyway, if you have any tips to get this going would be nice.
Garage has deduplication of all files, yes. Obviously if you host something on server not under your control you have to have a certain trust in them. Generally speaking Garage seems to be a good replacement for Minio, but I don’t have any direct tips for migrating.
There was also a project for Mastodon to sit between it and any S3 storage that would allow sharing and deduplicating files between instances, but I can’t find it right now and forgot the name. But it seemed stuck in a rewrite and not actively developed outside of that.
Its is commonly done with S3 compatible storage, and projects like Garage allow to do so in a distributed way.
Neither Bittorrent or IPFS seem particularly well suited for this.
