Lower bandwidth for who? When images are cached on other instances, it allows two things:
- Load sharing. The original instance doesn’t have to serve the whole fediverse, but only its own users + 1 request per other lemmy instance.
- Data availability through redundancy. If the original instance goes down, the cached image is still viewable on other instances.
I recently tried Original Sin 2 two weeks ago with the Baldur’s Gate craze. I’m not really a RPG player but I wanted to try it to make sure I wasn’t missing anything.
Conclusion: I really don’t like RPGs :p
