+### gotosocial admin media prune remote
+
+This command can be used to prune unused/stale remote media from your GoToSocial.
+
+Stale media means avatars/headers/status attachments from remote instances that are older than `media-remote-cache-days`.
+
+These items will be refetched later on demand, if necessary.
+
+Unused media means avatars/headers/status attachments which are not currently in use by an account or status.
+
+**This command only works when GoToSocial is not running, since it acquires an exclusive lock on storage. Stop GoToSocial first before running this command!**
+
