What am I paying DigitalOcean for that is doing nothing
Use “What am I paying DigitalOcean for that is doing nothing” in Recued. Finds resources that bill while idle: powered-off droplets, volumes attached to nothing, load balancers with no backends, and accumulated snapshots. A powered-off droplet still bills — only destroying it stops the charge.
