And that’s all, I’m happy since I was out of space.
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
Remove unused conda packages and caches:
conda clean --all
If you are a Python developer, this can easily be several or tens of GB.
I freed 50gb by running ‘docker system prune’…
I’m new to docker and all of my shit stopped working recently. Just wouldn’t load. Took about a half hour to find out that old images were taking up about 63GB on my 100GB boot partition, resulting in it being completely full.
I added the command to prune 3 month old images to my update scripts.
Yeah, it’s really not called out in the docs. I found out the same way.
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.
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.

A bit too much to just install one soft. Hard pass.
[moonpie@osiris ~]$ du -h $(which filelight) 316K /usr/bin/filelightK = kilobytes.
[moonpie@osiris ~]$ pacman -Ql filelight | awk '{print $2}' | xargs du | awk '{print $1}' | paste -sd+ | bc 4534774045347740 bytes is 43.247 megabytes. That is to say, the entire install of filelight is only 43 megabytes.
KDE packages have many dependencies, which cause the packages themselves to be extremely tiny. By sharing a ton of code via libraries, they save a lot of space.
It being KDE is even less reason to use it
you do realize this makes everyone immediately discard your opinion, because it’s useless, right?
