Image previews will still be cached, i believe.
Not sure what quality lemmy would cache them at, i presume its configurable

Generally, UPS (lead acid) batteries are not designed for long-cycle deep discharge.
They are designed to hold their rated load for a minute or so until the power is restored (generators start, power-uncuts) or the servers have a chance to shut down.
But maybe thats dated information, and modern UPSs are designed to run from batteries for a few hours.
Thats no longer a UPS.
You could get something like a powerwall, something designed to power things from batteries for a long time.
Or get a generator with an automatic failover. The UPS then covers the downtime between powerfailure and generator taking load
Have you described IPv4, subnets and eBGP?
A subnet defines a group. A group knows how to talk to eachother.
A node is nominated to be able to talk to other groups (the gateway). If that node doesnt know how to reach a destination, it sends it to its super-groups gateway.
At some level of scale a gateway-node might have multiple upstream gateway paths, where if a destination is part of group a it sends it to the gateway it knows can handle group a. Which is essentially a very simple BGP.
Its just that instead of dedicated hardware doing the routing, you have everyones computer doing it
Well, no. Because users choose what they share on the fediverse by writing it and posting it.
Servers processing IP, User Agents, Emails etc as part of security is not part of the agreement to share with the fediverse.
So, an instance that federates will be able to receive the publicly shared information for free (usernames, displaynames, profiles, posts & comments). They wont get any PII that a user does not explicitly share (by writing it in a comment).
But if an instance started selling the information of their own users, then that would be in violation of GDPR.
Does "the normal way" support anything other that zip and rar?
I dont know what a smart folder is.
But you can extract to ./[archive name]
Or use 7zip like any sane person
Good gods, a long-form content creator! Will be checking this out later
Same could be said about PHP
Ah, but now there are articles about it.
So the wiki article can reference those!
Im sure there is an XKCD about this. And a term for it
Not modern tires.
