You may need to expand your disks. Please refer to this article here, https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/droplets/how-to/resize/#verifying-disk-resizes

Hello @miraaxolotl
As mentioned you can verify that the disk was extended using the
df
tool. In certain cases, a disk resize fails to resize the Droplet’s partition or filesystem. If you rerundf -h
after a disk resize and the output is unchanged, this usually indicates a problem.You can find more information here:

Hey @miraaxolotl,
The message is associated with a full disk. Can you enter your Droplet/SSH to it and type in
df -h
what do you see? Is your disk still full?Additionally, it’s possible to remove uneeded files from your system without the worry of breaking anything. It’s possible your app has created a lot of log files which have taken up your space.
Apart from what has been said already, you can check https://docs.digitalocean.com/support/how-do-i-fix-disk-space-issues-on-my-droplet/ as well.
