128Gb feels so little these days for a computer running Windows, let alone 32Gb!
And especially if that is your only drive.
I had up until recently when my son broke it a 7" tablet running Windows 10 on 32Gb. It did a pretty decent job of it too. It was only £40 and that was years ago I purchased it... I was always managing files on it! However I do agree its pretty tight. I'm currently running Win 10 on a 64Gb SSD in my main PC and it just isn't enough for a real PC!Quote:

Guess that means I'll be moving my Lenovo Yoga to Ubuntu. It only has a 64GB eMMC for a drive.
ZzzZzz. Just move and get it done already.Quote:

I'm using 51.1Gb with a heck of a lot of stuff installed.
Well, the update won't be here for another 90 years, so plenty of time to adjust. ;)Quote:

If that ever does become a concern, I can always use Disk Cleanup or the file compression built into NTFS (the latter of which Linux doesn't support).Quote:

You may want to check if Caja has this same deficiency. Edit 2: Actually, I tested this myself. It does. Plasma's Dolphin does too.
Another example is that I love the Windows taskbar with it's ability to display open windows as icons only, pin icons to it, group together all windows from the same program under one icon, add entries to a program's jumplist and display a preview of the window while hovering over the icon. Windows has had all these features for a decade now whereas I have yet to find a Linux DE that isn't missing at least one of them.
Edit: In fact, I've even had difficulties doing something as simple as moving the taskbar (or equivalent) to the left side of the screen.
