That's when you know it's time for a fresh install
Do you delete all your files on a reinstall? Documents, photos, videos, games?
-
My
/is a tmpfs.There is no state accumulating that I didn't explicitly specify, exactly because I don't want to deal with those kind of chores.
These tools are also useful for finding large files in your home directory. E.g. I've found a large amount of Linux ISOs I didn't need anymore.

And that's all, I'm happy since I was out of space.
dustYes, it's
duin Rust + more. -

I usually keep important stuff on my server but things like games and stuff I purge with the fresh install and just download the games I'm actively playing, also helps clear up any issues from installing random junk during the months between as I settle on what programs I like

Separate partitions for / and /home, save all your data, configs, etc. but you can still distrohop!

It is totally valid that you are not. We all have our preferences.
With that being said, I don't get the "BÄÄM" reference. Hehe.

Its a reference to a german video clip. It was a true classic in our group.

Sir, this is not Windows.

I recommend it too. It's simple as doing:
sudo rm -rf /Where "-rf" obviously stands for "remove french".
The joke goes
rm -fr, which stands for "remove french".
Yours would has double "remove". -
Basically, just using gtk instead of Qt
I've really enjoyed
ncdu(for those looking for a non-GUI option). -
dustYes, it's
duin Rust + more.I have to remember to check this out. its on my reminders in my self host calendar but its been offline fpr quite some time after moving.

Lol I had no idea it relied on so much. Its just built into KDE. Really great app overall.

Sir, this is not Windows.
I'm still pretty new to Linux so I break stuff pretty often, like recently I was trying to get opencl working with my amd gpu and I ended up causing every video I played to stutter constantly.
And I've been trying out new software to control fans or rgb and following guides making me enter commands until I figure out something that works I note it down so when I do a fresh install again I can easily configure it without all the trial and error etc and install only the software I found that I liked
That plus distro hopping

If you need a more interactive method, gdu is awesome. And if you're using btrfs, btdu gives preliminary results instantly (which get more precise over time).
I'm getting old...KISS!

duin Rust + more.Came to recommend du-dust!

Is this a Linux version of windirstat?
side note: wiztree performs better on windows than windirstat, radically faster scans
now I feel dirty talking about windows here..
