I freed 30GB using Filelight

And that's all, I'm happy since I was out of space.

I freed 50gb by running 'docker system prune'...
-
last year I had over 1TB freed by docker system prune on a dev VM. If you're building images often, that's a mandatory command to run once in a while.
-
paccache -r
got me about the same -
I once freed 28 GB using
find ~/Downloads/ -mtime +30 -delete
-
Oh, that reminds me,...
-
I freed my entire disk by removing the French language pack
-
For the curious, rm - fr /

Is this a Linux version of windirstat?

I'm here to promote
fclones
. I've used it twice and recovered over a terabyte on my NAS the last time I used it. I'm not affiliated. Hyperspace for Mac is similar (but different) and I haven't used it, but it was developed by my favorite nerd podcast host. I'm planning to test it out eventually, but the latestfclones
run was only about a month ago, so it doesn't make sense to try it yet. -
I'm more of a baobab person myself

That's when you know it's time for a fresh install
-
Nah, in a rolling distro it's normal, they were mostly unused stuff hide in /home, and useless yay pkg.
-
This is why I've set up a ramdisk on
~/.cache
and~/Downloads
-- "free" automatic cleanup plus a tad more of performance because why not. -
I create a cron job with something like:
docker system prune -af --filter="until=XXh"
where XX is on the order of a few days. -
Does Linux have spacesniffer?
-
There's a more direct version of that, I guess from KDE, called KdirStat.
I hadn't heard of the one in the op. But if I had to guess, it looks like it's a different take on the same idea.

Clean all the cache downloads of Arch Linux Packages
pacman -Scc
Remove unused docker networks and images
docker system prune --all
Cleanup untracked git files that might be in .gitignore such as build and out directories (beware of losing data, use "n" instead of "f" for a dry run)
git clean -xdf
Do an aggresive pruning of objects in git (MIGHT BE VERY SLOW)
git gc --aggressive --prune=now
Remove old journal logs, keeping last seven days
journalctl --vacuum-time 7days
Remove pip cache
pip cache purge
-
Omfg.
I was trying to remember the name of kdirstat ladt night when I stumbled across filelight and made use of that instead.
And now there'sa thread on this exact topic. Y'all need to quit it with all this Truman Show nonsense, Baader-Meinhof alone isn't enough to explain how frequently shit like this happens. XD
