Hello I got the "running out of space" notification after it being gone for a couple of weeks. I did not download make vids take a lot of picture nor backups.

Clearly this is a problem (AGAIIIIINNNNNnnn) so i thought i'd make ANOTHER post about it. Also i saw people make use of a prog called "space inspector" which does not seem to be present at openrepos/warehouse any more.

Please provide a url to the app: space inspector.

Also the advise to clear ../vault puzzles me. Since I dont know where the "..' points to. Again terrible job by Jolla.

Space inspector is in the jolla market, and .vault is in your home directory "/home/nemo/.vault"

easiest to clear .vault is with sailfish utilities.
copy your backups to sd-card (jolla-settings, backup) and use utilities to clear backup-storage

ì dont know which utility you use? but i dont see any utility for deleting installation backups or specific disk cleaning. so please describe "utility" further

It could be due to brtfs filesystem issue. https://together.jolla.com/question/30822/root-and-home-disks-full-and-causing-various-problems/ https://together.jolla.com/question/66595/request-automaticbackground-btrfs-balance-defrag-type-cleaning-of-filesystem/ I had to trigger it manually to clear space on couple of occassions. In one of the previous release, Jolla released a feature to to auto balance on Tuesdays 3 AM when plugged into a charger. https://together.jolla.com/question/92154/btrfs-balancing-in-114/
