I haven't tried using the S3 plugin for NodeBB, but my Mastodon instance uses S3 interface via Digital Ocean Spaces.

It seems rather expensive, though I might get rid of it altogether, especially compared to NodeBB which you can host for a flat $6/mo

Apparently It doesn't work on V3.. .Or did I miss something

You preach for your parish, normal.

I will try to modify the plugin for imgBB.

Imgur suck a lot now (ban IP, etc..)

@DownPW newsflash.... Imgur always sucked 🤭

DownPW

haha yes

@DownPW Try this plugin - https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17129/nodebb-plugin-storj-upload-storj-upload

@brazzerstop Very nice, and Storj includes 25GB free so that should cover all of @DownPW's needs.

@DownPW Don't forget to set a DNS record for your bucket and use that when setting up the plugin. This will ensure that you can change to a different storage provider in the future (if you ever need to).

@razibal

I have uninstalled the s3 plugin because he don't work for me on V3 (I haven't ACP Configuration panel for setting up the plugin)

razibal

@julian True enough, but that same $6/mo NodeBB instance should be able to accomodate more users if all assets were to be served from an S3 bucket. And, it wouldn't add anything to the cost either.

DownPW

@razibal

Did you manage to make the plugin work on V3 ?

razibal

@DownPW You should use the Storj plugin as linked by @brazzerstop

That is also an S3 plugin, in this case for 3.x

An S3 bucket is an S3 bucket regardless of the storage vendor.

@abd32 Because it doesn't work on v3

It seems indeed, or so I missed something (if someone can confirm)
It would be interesting if this Storj plugin works for other providers too

Confirmed There are no settings in the ACP in v3.
