I've got a base 20.04 server image I clone out, looking now it's using
2.5gb with some updates, things like snmpd installed, small stuff. I
remember when ubuntu server install was like 600mb, but even linux has
grown significantly. Sounds like you had some other crap creep into the
install, or the lamp stack is a pig too these days.
I just installed my new laptop with a 512mb boot drive, and it's not enough
to store 4 kernels even in Arch anymore (normal/fallback kernels for both
lts and up to date). I started getting screwed with ubuntu in the later
2013 and up years using a 256mb boot, now guess I need a gig if I need more
than 1 kernel set. Drat.
