Definitely not the right place for this, but I'm yet to find the right place. I need an SSD/HDD that can store about 10 years worth of family photo and video. I was looking at that Samsung rugged SSD, but it's a little above my price range right now. I'e like to have at least a terabyte for future photos so I don't have to worry...

I don't understand why people still want to use reddit instead of moving to Lemmy or Kbin

Entire mod teams of r/interestingasfuck, r/TIHI and r/mildlyinteresting KICKED out. Some even locked out of their accounts (old.reddit.com)
Was the lemmyverse/threadiverse aware that Mastodon has been convulsed for the past 2 days?
