+
+as of today, we will be enforcing per-user disk quotas here on tilde.team.
+
+this was a manual chore that i have been meaning to set up for a while.
+
+the limits will be 1gb as a soft limit then 3gb as the hard limit.
+
+there's a 1-week grace period after reaching 1gb for you to find and remove files.
+
+see the [disk usage wikipage](/wiki/disk-usage) for help on finding large files.
+
+thanks for keeping this a usable system for everyone :)
