Unfortunately mastodon is not something ive used before, so i cant really help you further than that…
Hopefully someone else can chime in

Oh my bad then. VHS tapes are not something im super familiar with

Look on the the arch wiki, you can tweak snapshot/cleanup frequencies, which is nice

The bigger libraries in my area have digitizing equipment that you are free to use as a member, so might be worth checking that out

In terms of aur clones theres some pretty young projects out there, check out MBR (makedeb repository) or Pacstall. Ive heard of them in passing but have never tried them out tho
