Is it possible to do a “cleanup” on a Ubuntu server? I am thinking about temporary files and folders, log files etc. which can take up space.
My server was using 94% of the available storage, and after I shut it off and upgraded to double storage it was using 20%, which makes me believe that there is/was some temp files/folder that got deleted on the restart?
