OK - found the culprit - VERY weird???
Starting situation:
[nemo@Sailfish ~]$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 2.4G 2.0G 376M 85% /
/dev/sailfish/root 2.4G 2.0G 376M 85% /
/dev/sailfish/home 47G 12G 36G 24% /home
First of all this has NO SD-card installed, since none of my SD cards work - the device will become stuck in boot - but I managed to borrow one small SD-card that I got working and copy files to it through SCP/WLAN while it was attached to the phone. Later I took it out - so currently no SD card - BUT
...it seems that there is some SD-card cache in mount /media/sdcard - which is showing SD-cards that have been attached previously(?)
[nemo@Sailfish sdcard]$ ls -l
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 nemo nemo 4096 Nov 13 12:31 12F2-0633
drwxr-xr-x 2 nemo nemo 4096 Oct 31 14:16 5558-DAFD
drwxr-xr-x 2 nemo nemo 4096 Nov 1 08:46 F0E9-334E
drwxr-xr-x 2 nemo nemo 4096 Nov 1 13:08 fb7ef8cd-f052-d301-d00a-f8cdf052d301
and under:
/media/sdcard/12F2-0633 - was a folder "music" where I had copied music-files to test SD-card write speeds
=> deleting those files - and I ended up with 1,1GB of free space:
[nemo@Sailfish /]$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 2.4G 1.4G 1.1G 58% /
/dev/sailfish/root 2.4G 1.4G 1.1G 58% /
/dev/sailfish/home 47G 12G 36G 24% /home
=> sorted - but Please can someone tell me what's going on with this SD-card file caching???

See there for @Sage's answer. The reason is either too many applications or that you played too much with developer mode ;)
Edit: or according to @thisisme's answer, a simple reboot might be enough.
