finish last fixes on new #crisp s3 storage backend to support hybrid between our old school Minio over LAN, and DigitalOcean Spaces S3 buckets, and any other S3 provider — used to route certain path prefixes to certain S3 providers for future cost optimization and to ease with the production migration

book nature tour and car for weekend #life

investigate if it's possible to migrate all #crisp s3 objects from our current minio on network volume deployment, to digitalocean spaces because they have a limit of 100M objects and we may be well past that... lol - wrote a small C helper to count faster than Linux's ls command cause it's so slow when recursive on millions of files
