Thanks i think this is a great idea.
Since this problem I think is quite common (at least from reading a few threads and comments around) it might be interesting to create a guide especially regarding the part of having lemmy use this/mounted volume instead of the default one.
I in the meantime will try to look around for some information on how this can be done, any advice is definitely welcome.
Thanks!
Thank you for your answer!
Since I currently use Hetzner the only way to get more space is to upgrade the server (at a not inconsiderable cost).
The alternative might be to purchase SSD block storage volumes which are definitely lower priced (5€ per month for 100GB) however it would be interesting to know if there is a guide for Lemmy for this or if others have had positive experience doing this.
Hello, I have 160GB to run Lemmy but I saw that as much as 77GB is used by pictrs.
Is there any way to clear the image cache or delete any pictures that are too heavy?
Also 37GB for postgres seems like a lot to me, is there any cache or temporary file that can be cleared?
edit: I am using Lemmy 0.18.5
Thanks to your post, the comments and the discussion that ensued, I was able to recreate the same effect on my Wordpress blog: https://www.lealternative.net/2024/10/21/cal-com-infrastruttura-di-pianificazione-per-chiunque/ 🧡
