I’m betting the root of this problem is on how I originally installed the system but I would like another opinion. Or several.
Running Mint.
After analyzing the disk usage, the folder where Thunderbird is installed is completely full. I have four separate accounts in it but a single one is responsible for taking all the space available, through the imap/sent folder, which makes no sense for me, as I send relatively few messages compared with all the messages I receive.
I already considered just purging the program from my system and completely reinstall it but if I’m going to do that I’m better off doing a fresh system installation.
The system has two disks: a SSD running the system core and a HDD for the home partition. I opted to keep the system core on the SSD to speed up booting (and it worked) and used the HDD for storage because. I prefer HDDs for user files, for longevity reasons. The biggest mistake I made here was not using LVM on the disks.
Any thoughts and criticism on this is welcome.
Thank you in advance.


I wouldn’t bother with a HDD in the future. They are slow and SSDs will last for years.
Anyways, could you post the output ofNever mind, I missed your commentdf? It would help significantly with troubleshootingWith the memory chips getting the sharp uptick they are going through right now? Pass. Speed is not crucial for me. I don’t do any hardcore gaming nor run some speed critical apps. HDD’s cover my necessities.
