Any helpful tips for general care and feeding I should be doing on a regular basis?

I know I need to keep an eye on updates and re-run my ansible setup form time to time to stay up to date.

But I have also been keeping an eye on my VPS metrics to see when/if I need to beef up the server.

One thing I am noticing is a steadily increasing disk utilization (which mostly makes sense except its seeming a bit faster than I expected as most all media is links to external sites rather than uploading media directly to my instance).

Anything I can do to manage that short of just adding more space? Like are there logs/cached content that need to be purged from time to time?

Thank you!

    If anyone stumbles across this, the command to connect to the DB is (run from the root of your lemmy install - assuming a docker install):

    docker-compose exec postgres psql -U lemmy
