  • I ran this query:

    select distinct thumbnail_url as url from post where not local and thumbnail_url like 'https://campfyre.nickwebster.dev/pictrs%'
    

    (replace with your instance’s url)

    I then sent delete requests to /internal/purge on pictrs to delete all of those old thumbnails, which cleared out a lot of space. After deleting the thumbnails I ran an UPDATE query to set all of those old thumbnail URLs to null in the DB. I also patched the version of lemmy that I run to stop caching thumbnails in the future. Hope this helps!
