IIRC, I've read comments elsewhere that pictrs caches for 6 months, but I can't independently verify. I hope this gets a broader answer because I'm still on the fence about getting an instance set up for myself and some small communities.
Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I believe the activity table in Postgres is retained for 6 months (although I’m purging mine daily) and the pict-rs cache is 168 hours (1 week).
How do you purge daily? Also, does that delete any post history or anything in a similar vein?
I’m running the following SQL, although I’m not actually sure it’s as necessary since 0.18.3. It doesn’t delete any post history or anything.
DELETE FROM activity WHERE published < NOW() - INTERVAL '1 day';
