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!

Might want to check out this issue. Honestly, I’m not sure what exactly the activity table consists of or what it does but it’s been eating through everyone’s disk space pretty fast.
well, indeed it could be just that. I just checked and it’s size is 15GB 😱
The activity table is every message that is sent or received between your instance and the rest of the fediverse; posts, comments, votes, admin actions, etc.
Why would that be the case?
I’m not too sure as well. Most people running their own Lemmy instance probably want more config options to fit their needs. I like how much I can configure with
pictrs
straight from the docker compose file for example.
