Resizing is our #1 issue with DO. The current quick resize adds cores and RAM just fine, but it's a one way trip. It's not possible to shrink upsized instances

Resizing is our #1 issue with DO. The current quick resize adds cores and RAM just fine, but it's a one way trip.
It's not possible to shrink upsized instances like you can on Linode. On DO you can't even restore a snapshot or backup to a smaller instance size - you must rebuild from scratch.
I guess the right way to handle this is a configuration management tool, but this is a real pain since there is only local storage.
