First up, dive into Settings on your Steam Deck, head over to Storage, and there you can see what's gobbling up your space. 'Other' storage can be pesky apps, cache, or system files you no longer need. Try clearing the Download Cache first; it's like spring cleaning but for your Steam Deck. If that doesn't do the trick, consider uninstalling games or apps you no longer play. Remember, it's digital decluttering season!

A quick fix? Expand your storage! Grab a high-speed microSD card, slot it in, and voila鈥攕pace issues be gone! Seriously, it's like giving your Steam Deck a roomy backpack for all its digital goodies.

Deleting unused apps and clearing the cache regularly works wonders. I once freed up almost 20GB just by getting rid of stuff I didn't even remember installing. It's like finding lost treasure, but instead of gold, it's extra space for new games!

Honestly, just ignore the 'Other' storage. The system manages it, and unless it's really cramping your style, focus on the games, not the gigabytes. Life's too short to worry about invisible digital clutter.
