Disk Space Server Host Switch

I’m really looking to move my server to a new host, but I’ve hit a bit of a wall. My current server uses about 220GB of disk space, and the host I want to switch to is telling me that’s too much. Has anyone run into this before? What are my options here?

They're telling you that's too much? Screw them, find a different host 220G is a lot btw

You may want to trim your world size, but if they have 0 options that will allow you to use that much or more storage(even if you pay for it) I wouldn't go with them

use mcaselector to delete useless chunks https://github.com/Querz/mcaselector pufferfish has a great guide about it https://docs.pufferfish.host/plugins/trim-minecraft-world-mcaselector/

They want me to pay for extra storage. Should I do it?

for $8 more you can get a game server from https://waffle.host and have unlimited fair use nvme storage(ask for more info about what fair usage is). I am affiliated with waffle.host
