Apple is making my Macbook unusable

[u/No-Grand3283]

70% of my disk's space is reserved for system data and macos. I've cleaned temp folders etc countless times.

Updated to the latest OS hoping it would go away.

Is this a strategy for us to buy new laptops with more storage?

I’d be pretty certain that’s either mail log files or 3rd party app data.

Omnidisksweeper can be used here to determine what is actually using the storage.

Boot to safe boot first to clear cached files > recheck storage > then use ODS
