I’m running a small instance just for myself and a friend. We basically use it to access the Lemmy fediverse.
I was under the impression that our instance would not download imagery that was not hosted on it but the pict-rs “files” directory ended up with 45 gig of data which ultimately filled up the VPS storage space.
Is there a command that I can automate to prune this regularly or does anyone have a solution?
It would definitely be nice to have some image retention policy. If an image hasnt been accessed in say 6 months its probably safe to say I won’t care about it. And if need be it can pull it from the original server again.
