storage requirements will only increase (attachments, linked website images), unless you are regularly deleting content and so contributing to link rot
lemm.ee currently even proxies links to external images, sunaurus identified some issues with it, storage wasn't one of them. Storage requirements are going to look quite differently if you're lemmynsfw.com but it's not particularly hard to get enough donations to afford a couple extra TB a month. Much, much cheaper than paying admins an actual wage where I think the actual scaling pain will be.
