Thanks @smorks; you’re doing an awesome job! One thing not covered yet is your backup policy; it’s possible that items would get backed up before they were deleted.
Personally for my server box I have two local backups and one offsite rotating backup that rotates quarterly. Such a setup can definitely capture information that later changes such as deleted posts and IP addresses that are logged before they’re rewritten. Something to consider, especially as backups are important for disaster recovery, especially in the case of handling other people’s data.
thank you for the reminder. i'm currently doing weekly backups offsite, which includes the database and all pictrs data (image data). the off-site backups are all encrypted (i'm currently using restic for this), so again, i'm currently the only one with access to it.
