From the project's github page: Czkawka is a simple, fast and free app to remove unnecessary files from your computer.

This is an excellent, fast tool for finding duplicates, large files, etc.

I was running out on my home directory and freeing up lots of space with this tool turned out to be super easy.

Sadly, it doesnt detect short videos. I don't have many, but there are certainly a bunch of short "accidentally pressed record and forgot to delete it later" videos from my phone in my PC.

Baobab is good too for the more manual process of finding the largest files/folders

Huh I don't understand the problem? Why don't you set up a server with 100TB if you need space /s

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
