I’ve had a Lemmy instance running on a VPS with 100 GB of storage for a few months and it has filled up. I’ve been searching for ways to reduce the amount of storage used but so far I am coming up empty. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Are you on the latest version?

    Is the space used by pictrs, or your db?

      Sadly, no. My server has been a bit neglected but it’s been plugging along and working fine for the most part. I need to upgrade though. And I assume pictrs but to be honest I haven’t checked. I just noticed today it was running poorly and checked and the drive is full.

        The last release (or maybe the one before) did a bunch of DB cleanup that reduces the db size by about 20gb.
