Doesn't matter since they're not actually stored on your machine but on iCloud instead

tropic crow
#

What does it mean?

#

Can I delete them? I need more storage idk what to do

#

And idk what system data is

#

An idk why I have so much

hearty ether
#

I'm telling you it won't give you more storage

#

because it's not stored on your device lol

tropic crow
#

Ohh

#

How can I make more storage

#

I need to delete system data

hearty ether
#

You pay Apple more money

Can't I delete system data

hearty ether
#

can be literally anything but probably some sort of backup or whatever else you might be doing

#

could be MacOS updates that are downloaded but not installed

tropic crow
#

I only use my Mac for the sims4

hearty ether
#

could be old logs, could be whatever

I don't use Mac, no

tropic crow
#

Oh ok, so what do I do now

hearty ether
#

and type in "what is mac system data" then you take a look at each of those categories

#

maybe you even ask the LLM of your choice what parts you can or can't delete (and pray it doesn't hallucinate)

#

can't be that hard

#

But how do I know which cashes to delete

#

And do u delete stuff inside the cashe folder or the whole cashes thing

#

Can I delete all of this stuff

hearty ether
#

Do you still need those installers?

tropic crow
#

I don't know

#

I've been deleting cashes for like half an hour my storage barely budged

#

I'm so overstimulated
