Matrix Space: #lemmy-space

Over just 14 days our physical disk usage has increased from 52% to 59%. That's approximately 1.75 GB of disk space being gobbled up for unknown reasons.

At that rate, we'd be out of physical server space in 2 -3 months. Of course, one solution would be to double our server disk size which would double our monthly operating cost.

The 'pictrs' folder named '001' is 132MB and the one named '002' is 2.2GB. At first glance this doesn't look like it's an image problem.

So, we are stumped and don't know what to do.

It's $6 per month for the 25GB and it would increase to $12 per month if we expanded to 50GB. We just don't understand why our disk usage would increase so dramatically over only 14 days.
