Helpful post, thank you!
Huge thank you! I had a feeling something like this was going on but had no idea how to troubleshoot/fix.
My pictrs
and lemmy
containers were the biggest between 3-8 GB (significant for a smaller instance) after a couple weeks.
For anyone who finds this, in addition to what OP provided here, another command I found helpful (since I am a docker noob 🙂) to find the name of the currently running containers:
docker ps --format '{{.Name}}'
