Ask HN: How to remove “other” storage in Mac?
I wonder how to get rid of this space. The ratio is crazy because I don't use softwares that much, and this other space takes >90GB.
- jayyzhu 6y agoHad the same problem plague me for years. This solution has been a life changer for me. I use OmniDiskSweeper (not affiliated). In terminal, run the command: sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper Give it a moment then click through the options and you'll eventually be able to locate the issue. For me, it's typically some cache for an Adobe product thats eating up a monster amount of space. Hope this works for you!

- jayyzhu 6y agoNo prob, hope it goes well! Yeah, it's insane how much storage they can eat up.
