    Are you on 16k resolution or something?

    When i take a screenshot of my 3440x1440 display it’s 1MB big. I mean this doesn’t change the issue in its core but dramatically downsizes it

        Also, 1MB on full resolution. You could also downscale the images dramatically after you OCR them. So let’s say we shoot in full res, OCR and then downscale to 50%. Still enough so everything is human readable, combined with searchable OCR you’re down to 7,5GB for a whole month.

        Absolutely feasable. Let’s say we’re up to 8GB to include the OCR text and additional metadata and just reserve 10GB on your system for that to make double sure.

        Now you have 10GB to track your whole 3440x1440 display.
