Feel free to > discuss this here or under the blog post. So Copr is going even further with this broken approach of deleting user data to "address storage consumption". As I have already stated several times, deleting user data by default (on an opt-out basis) is NEVER acceptable. Even more so if the opt-out requires one to fight Copr's dark patterns deliberately making it a pain in the neck: One has to log into Copr every so often, and each time click a whole bunch of "Extend" buttons one at a time. There is no way to opt out permanently nor even for a longer time period than the default, nor even an "Extend All" button. The real issue still appears to be that "Disk storage is the commodity that incurs the highest cloud costs.", which means that cloud might not be the right technology to use here. Or at least the particular cloud implementation you are using (which last I checked was from Amazon). I understand that (also last I checked) the cloud infrastructure was donated to you for free. But that donation is not of much use if it does not include a workable amount of storage for something like Copr nor an offer to extend the storage at a reasonable price (which Amazon's list price is apparently not).
