hello, on my server on which only Lemmy is running, I don’t understand why it fills up space all the time. Every day it increases by about 1GB thus risking reaching the limit after a short time.
It is not the images’ fault because there is a size limit for uploading and they are also transformed into .webp.
The docker-compose file is the one from Ansible 0.18.2 with the limits for loggin already in it (max-size 50m, max-file 4).
What could it be? Is there anything in particular that I can check?
Thanks!

You’d need to take your site down for a while since write access is necessary to that table to avoid duplicates. But yeah, once you’ve done a vacuum full you could find a way to each day trim old entries.
Entries older than 6 months are deleted by default, but as far as I understand it might be safe to manually delete them sooner than that?
I’m purging much more aggressively than that an so far so good.
Good to know, thanks! I have space to spare, but I’ll probably make it more aggressive to save on backup size
