    There could be btrfs stuff I’m not aware of, but on a file system structure level, do you have a separate drive for booting and then another you added and mounted separately? Or did you install Linux over another install and changed partitions used? The reason I’m asking is you could have a whole drive of data under a folder and then later mount another partition or drive to that same folder. Linux will show you the mounted folder contents, but the original is not visible until you unmount your Mount point. The data is still there. So drive can be full, even though contents look smaller.

    I can’t say its that for sure, but it has tripped people up before.

    But could be btrfs cleanup needs looking at.

    OP seemed like they didn’t know where to start, so linking programs together was my suggestion. With a rough example. If thats against etiquette the noted.

    As for helpfulness, where are the code block entries. I have preview, hyperlink, inage, bold, italic,quotes,lists and spoilers across the bottom, and no codeblock.

    As for Wayland compatible this is where, somebody reads between the lines. If those two aren’t Wayland compatible search for Wayland compatible tool like “xxxxxx”.

    Chatgt says build a scrip using a few tools. xdotool and scrot. I don’t know if this code is good or not. And some hashes are making markdown headers. How do we paste code on here?

    #!/bin/bash

    Set interval (in seconds)

    INTERVAL=10

    Output directories

    LOG_FILE=“$HOME/window_log.txt” IMG_DIR=“$HOME/window_snaps” mkdir -p “$IMG_DIR”

    while true; do # Get timestamp TS=$(date “+%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S”)

    # Get active window title
TITLE=$(xdotool getactivewindow getwindowname 2>/dev/null)

# Fallback if title is empty
if [ -z "$TITLE" ]; then
    TITLE="(No active window)"
fi

# Take screenshot
IMG_FILE="$IMG_DIR/snap_$TS.png"
scrot "$IMG_FILE"

# Log entry
echo "$TS | $TITLE" >> "$LOG_FILE"

# Wait before next iteration
sleep $INTERVAL

    done
