Looking for feedback concerning disk usage of this server (beehaw.org)

When Beehaw was first launched our disk usage (physical space on the server) was approximately 45%.

Right now we are up to 72% and this will continue to climb over time.

At the moment, I can only see two options. Firstly, go up an additional tier with our server host which would increase the monthly hosting cost.

Secondly, figure out a way to remove old and inactive posts. Hopefully, there is a batch process for this or something similar. I'm not an expert in this area, sadly.

What are your thoughts?

Can you give us absolute numbers instead of percentages? You can get cheap storage for way less money than fast storage.

The server is, currently, using 18GB of the allotted 25GB.
