I noticed that the stuff on my ext4-root-partition has grown by more than 20% over the last few month and I'm not aware that I added anything new. Usual requirements have been for years around 10GB....
If you used the defaults, your root filesystem is btrfs. Another default is to make a snapshot whenever the system is updated. These are probably causing the growth.
"for years around" implies an older installation, as does 10GB, likely before the name "Tumbleweed" supplanted "Factory", and before BTRFS became default. And, he did write EXT4 root. Some people aren't agreeable to every default. I saw nothing in OP to suggest OP used them. I have 0 TW installations out of >20 using BTRFS, and probably as many using EXT3 as EXT4. Might OP have done likewise, and not used the BTRFS default? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
