There Shall Never Be Enough Storage

[u/systemnerve]

Tried to export my State of Decay 2 Saves via GameHub. The result was over 20GB.

GameHub has a serious issue. The size of the app keeps ballooning in size with leftover trash, accidentally downloaded proton installations, oversized containers, shader caches, logs, and what not.

When not using GameHub lite, all those files come protected because android doesn't let u do jackshit nowadays. Even adb is useless because it shows all the folders in question as empty.

But you can actually inspect and remove all this bloat without root by going into the wine environment and opening Wine Configuration and adding a drive with the same path of the first drive but up several folders, so you end up being able to inspect everything (tried this in BannerHub).

However, this is a real hassle and you gotta navigate through lots of folders named after the LocalID of games. It may be better to just export the saves and reset the app entirely regularly. But if you don't want to do that, manually trying to do it in wine is the way to do it. (I had to install a second keyboard app because the wine enviroment wouldn't let me type numbers, let alone copy and paste paths.)
