    I've got an 80GB server with a handfull of apps but all the data is stored on volumes, with backups on DO spaces.

    I'm surprised that it's using all that space - is there some way to figure out what I can delete or continue to migrate to volumes and spaces?

      Have you looked at the disk usage graphs in your Cloudron dashboard to get a better sense on what is using up all that space?

        @nebulon I actually just stumbled on that for the first time on another install.

        I can see that platformdata docker and "Everything else" are taking up the most.

        Ubuntu with 15GB, platform data 28GB and docker 25GB

        on my external volumes mastodon is taking up 55GB

        Is platformdata the database?
        dock is all the apps?

          docker here are the docker images, those are often quite large indeed. The Ubuntu labeled one seems fine size wise, platformdata is Cloudron platform related things like databases (addons/services for apps), configs and logs.

            @nebulon Can you check what in /home/yellowtent/platformdata is taking so much space? 28GB of data does seem off.

              Yeah, I've got 48 apps running and mine is only 4.11GB (if my.cloudron.coop/#/system is to be believed - have all sorts of issues with it so I don't really trust it at all, see https://forum.cloudron.io/post/58715 )

              I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner
