You’re using 68 out of 69GB of your “/“ filesystem. (i.e the root filesystem). Several people have suggested ways to save some space, but I notice you are also using snaps, and they’re well known for taking up a lot of space because they retain multiple revisions of each app and dependency.
I avoid snaps like the plague so I can’t tell you how to clean up space used by snapd. But I’m sure there’s an Ubuntu wiki that’ll help somewhere.
Hear, hear! Snaps are nothing but trouble.
I've seen old snaps consume all space or a server that formerly had about 240 GB of free space.
