  Any of the following should help with identifying where the mystery space lives: DaisyDisk, GrandPerspective, or OmniDiskSweeper. Source: 5 months ago

• Something unknown in "Application" takes almost 150G from my Macintosh HD. And I cannot find what it is.

  I recommend the free graphical utility GrandPerspective to find out what is taking space and take action. Source: 5 months ago

• Tips for troubleshooting file space usage

  GrandPerspective - this app is free to download. The app is paid in the Mac App Store for what is essentially donation. It breaks down your disk usage graphically. This is the first step to cleaning your drive. Source: 10 months ago

• Why do i got 297.11 gb of system data??? and how do I fix this? Already tried Clean my Mac..

  Download the free and excellent GrandPerspective app and scan your disk, it will show you in a nested grahical form what is taking space. Maybe it's a sleep image, maybe it's on-disk TM backups cos you haven't connected your TM disk in a while, maybe it's some crazy big cache... GP will let you know so you can fix it.

• Terminal commands I use as a frontend developer

  I am using iTerm2 on my macOS. Other available options are Hyper and VS Code’s inbuilt terminal, which I sometimes use for quick tests. You can open a terminal in VS Code by using the keyboard shortcut CMD + J or CTRL + J on Windows, or View → Terminal. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago
