Quick summary
It appears that the actors folder in the Wordpress directory is constantly filling up, making for bloated directory.
(wp-content->uploads->activitypub->actors)
Looks like profile pics are stored in here. But they are never cleared. 1000s of profile pics are stored, even if the WP AP account only follows 10 profiles. Whatsmore, some profile pics have new versions uploaded daily with the old versions still stored, leaving multiple copies of the same image. Looking at three sites using the AP plugin two have 35mb worth of data of profile pictures stored here, while the other has over 750mb!
Could there be a way to flush this information so it is not stored eternally?
Steps to reproduce
Go to wp-content->uploads->activitypub->actors and see how much data is in there.
Site owner impact
Between 20% and 60% of the total website/platform users
