So you have been running your Ubuntu Server for a while and recently found out that the disk usage is already at 70%!? Then lets free some space up.

This tutorial will help you liberate space on your system without breaking anything in the process.

Before we start

Preface

While this tutorial is focused on Ubuntu Server, it can be used for many other distributions that use the same packages, like Ubuntu Desktop, Debian, Linux Mint, etc.

Requisites

• An Ubuntu server
• Access to your server

Clean packages

Packages are archived and stored, if these versions can't be downloaded anymore --because there is a newer version or any other reason--, they end up being unnecessary. So lets clean lingering packages.

Remove packages

Chances are that when you update and upgrade your system, some packages end up being unnecessary. But your system won't remove them, so lets tell it to do that.

Logs

Application logs keep increasing the disk usage of your server, specially if it is a busy one. But if we don't care much about keeping records, we can just delete them.

Biggest files

Now we are switching to a more manual approach, lets find out what the biggest files on our system are.

And then delete them

⚠ Be careful to not delete any important file, in case of doubt, don't do it. ⚠
