Disk is cheap and Discourse migrations are some of the most simple. It’s probably worth considering migrating VPS. if you can’t currently accommodate backups then things like a postgres upgrade will be a total showstopper.

It’s not worth putting time into this for most because time is worth more than the couple of extra GB.
