I’m self-hosting the docker containers and I noticed the pictrs directory is steadily growing because of the cached images. Does anyone know if it gets cleaned up automatically or are hosters running scripts to clean it up after a certain amount of time? The install guides make no mention of it from what I can find.

    It’s hard to say. I don’t know if the admins of Lemmy.ml have been public about their issues or not. I know that Lemmy.world hasn’t been having the same issues, at least from my perspective. Makes me think it’s less an architectural or design problem, but rather a lack of server resources like CPU, as you suggested.

      I read somewhere that Lemmy.ml has basically maxed out its VPS with its provider, so they’re stuck for the time being, whereas Lemmy.world actually just upgraded its server hardware. Hoping they’ll migrate to a beefier server soon.

        Yup, I’ve read something similar. Hopefully they’re able to get things sorted out soon!
