As it is currently, the storage space on server can quickly fill up if cached images are not cleaned regularly.
I've tried to find if lemmy runs any kind of schedule for this, but doesn't seem like it from the code:

Doesn't look like there's a way to clean it manually right now, so buckle up!

haha. I went to settings on my android and cleared up all my cache 😁

I was talking about the storage space on server, not on the user side! Sorry if I wasn't clear.
