Storage size on instance servers (midwest.social)

I recently had to expand my instance's storage size from 25 GB to 50 GB because it was out of space. How much storage do you all use for your instances? I'm a little surprised that it ran out of space as my instance isn't heavily used.

Am I doing something wrong? I prune all the unused docker images, so it's not that.

you could also free up space on pictrs docker exec -it YOUR_PICTRS_CONTAINER /bin/sh -c "rm /tmp/magick-*"

Hmm, tried that. It said no magick-* files exist.

hm, maybe this problem has been fixed

I created this instance with docker directly instead of using Ansible. Not sure if that could be why.
