Been summing up reports about the sizes of all the scientific data stored using #gitAnnex and it at least 3-5 petabytes, and growing by at least 2 petabytes per year currently.

In 2022, Github consisted of ~4 petabytes of data (excluding replicated data).

This is also in the neighborhood of the total size of the Library of Congress's digital collections, which was 3 petabytes in 2012.

Dunno who will win this race, but I'm surprised to be in it. ;-)
