Could be oom? How much ram do you have and is it filling up?

Ive been self hosting for years, have a 24/7/365 web server public facing, with 20+ services hosted, including a Lemmy instance. No formal education, qualification or any actual experience in any way. Never had a single course or anything. I work as a commercial manager on complex and large infrastructure construction and engineering projects.
Honestly dd is perfect. Like you say, shrink the partition down first, DD to the new disc, swap discs. That's it.
Setup a matrix or xmpp server for the messaging.
Welcome to the club! I too have an fyi tld!
I set my Lemmy instance a couple of weeks ago. But hosting isn't new to me so wasn't a huge hurdle.
That weather app still takes 5 seconds to load up, even with this new feature! That's insane! It's just the weather!
I have a python weather app on my linux desktop using 37mb. 1.6gb seems a tad excessive.
Totally agree! Since the dawn of pirating, I've never managed to watch a cam or TS. I remember back in the day only torrenting axxo copies as they were proper screeners or dvd rips. I'd rather just wait, even if it's days, weeks or months, I will wait.
im on a basic uk isp, with no fancy router, just the isp provided one. i have a fully exposed web server, im even hosting a lemmy server. Thats my domain, radiantfig.fyi, totally public, has been for nearly 2 years now. From that you can get my servers IP address. My IP is dynamic, changes roughly every 6 weeks. I have a ddns script that updates my server IP address to my domain name provider automatically. I have certbot running updating my TLS certs with lets encrypt, and if a cert dies or fails or is compromised, my server will refuse to serve. Everything is behind an nginx reverse proxy through port 443. I also have an ssh port open on a random port. Have fail2ban setup fairly aggressively to prevent brute force attacks, and have crowdsec which also kind of does the same but in a slightly different way. the internet requires ip addresses. to protect your ip address you have to give somebody elses. that somebody is a 3rd party you have no control or say on the decisions they make. i must have over 20 individual services that are public facing. 3 fully federated, lemmy, forgejo and matrix. Im as secure as any other website. nothing is unhackable, no matter how far down the rabbit hole you go. its all just layers of difficulty.
The important thing is dont listen to random internet people about security. dont listen to me. dont listen to anybody who tells you they know best. do your own research, understand the options, the risks, the compromises. only then do you put anything up. but if you are going to anxious or worried about your server and data, no amount of security guarantees you safety, so be warned.
Out of the box. Void is a very Diy distro though, so don't expect to install it and be up and running. But I have a fully functional pc with sway / Wayland, steam and video editing, so no compromises. I was previously on arch Linux for 15 years and tuned it as hard as I could and couldn't get anywhere near this boot time.

What filling up means is that you have 16gb of ram, and if your system tries to use it all, it will freeze, crash and require hard rebooting. I have more than double your ram and have hit oom (out of memory) which is a kernel error. Is your do some research around out of memory and how to mitigate and prevent it in Linux, you'll find multiple solutions and how to check if it is.
