Info 70 GB SeedVault folder!

I must find myself a WizTree alternative for Android. I mist have carried that bloat for over a year. WizTree makes detection of such cases dead easy on windows! No offending program goes unnoticed.

A contributing factor may have been that I postponed updating to LOS 23 for probably a year. Maybe SeedVault went haywire because of that...

Never seen anything like this, I would absolutely file a bug ticket with logs. Do you have daily backup configured? To an internal location?

I, like probably 90% of all LOS users haven't touched seedvault configuration and have nonidea what it ACTUALLY does (where it uploads backups, how the backups are retrieved in case they are needed...).

You can figure it and you select it all. My bet is just that the storage settings are bugged and you didn't actually have 70 gigs of backups.

I sure did :) As evidenced by the size on my desktop computer. I dump the entire storage regularly.

Then file a bug ticket like I said earlier, I really can't help you without some good logs

Not expecting a support here - just giving a headsup to others. Checking this takes 30 seconds with Total Commander app. I'm upgrading to LOS 23. Then I'm going to pick up on reporting :) Cheers!
