Comment on When using rsync to backup my /home folder to an external 1TB SSD, I run out of space, how??
bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 6 hours agoIt’s good you found some pathological examples, but I’m at the end of my rope here.
You can use these examples and the other information you gathered so far and ask specifically how these size discrepancies can be explained and maybe mitigated. I suggest more specialized communities for this such as !linux@lemmy.ml, !linux@programming.dev, !linux@lemmy.world, !linux4noobs@programming.dev, !linux4noobs@lemmy.world, !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip.
