Arch root partition is full, how to clean it up? - eviltoast

After installing pacman packages (last one was ‘ungoogled-chromium’) my root partition of 20GB is completly full. Now I can’t update new packages.

My partition structure is: root (20GB) /home (470GB) swap (10GB)

How can I delete the garbage that is piling up in my root, and how to prevent it from happening again.

    Just in case you use Docker, you should clean images and containers on disk. They usually live on the root partition and take huge amounts of space.
