On the fastest drive I have, longevity be dammed. I buy fast hardware because I want my computer to be fast - having my RAM (likely the fastest thing in the system) swap to a slow drive completely undermines that and defeats the purpose.
Hibernation I don’t normally mess with, and same with swappiness.


The biggest reason seems to be that it will evade filters, which people set up very intentionally and specifically to keep these Fedi-spaces a safe place for them mentally.
So, for example, someone comes here to get away from the ‘real world’ and news and whatnot, may have a filter that blocks anything with the word “Trump”, or one I actually see censored a lot more often, “Israel”
Then someone makes a post about “Isr*el is so bad” and it sails right through their filters.
