I set it to debug at somepoint and forgot maybe? Idk, but why the heck does the default config of the official Docker is to keep all logs, forever, in a single file woth no rotation?

Feels like 101 of log files. Anyway, this explains why my storage recipt grew slowly but unexpectedly.

Is there a tool to automatically check partitions for excessive log files, caches or other junk? The root partition of a Linux box I have is 60 GiB and almost full, and XFCE will fail to start when there's no space. I would use WinDirStat on Windows but the Linux alternatives can't do the job properly because they scan by file tree and some subdirectories of / are on other partitions because of symlinks... I guess I could boot a live USB and mount my ext4 root partition but not the NTFS storage one but I'd rather avoid that.
