We're looking for feedback on this, either in this thread or on Github. We'll be discussing this at the next protocol meeting on Aug 15 before we make a final decision. This change should be net positive for users and developers.

What will the reduction look like exactly? Also I believe the balance between the 3 storage „sectors“ is off (at least for me, but also for everybody I talked to), reactions has always been my only reason to buy more storage… Would it be possible to reconsider this as well?

Now that I think of it, I actually have an application that would be really important to me. In the /the-library channel I often use replies as additions to my casts to present more content in a structured way, like threads (as do many others). It would be a shame to lose these. Maybe one could specify channels that are not affected by the expiration, if possible? But that sounds too complicated...

You've caught me out a bit, maybe I should give it some real thought 🤔 I saw the red negative and was afraid to loose my past. Sometimes I give quite good replies though 😅 Will reconsider my approach, now that you say it like that...thanks 🙏
