Description David 2022-08-29 09:50:44 UTC
SUMMARY
Just as per the subject, it would be really nice if Discover had the ability to show for each app its disk usage.
I understand there are many sources and backends, but this would be a really nice to have feature in the perspective of switching to Discover as the main software manager instead of CLI based ones.
I'm referring to a dedicated page where one can see in a "Filelight fashion" disk usage statistics as some sort of graph (i.e. pie chart) and immediately get a clear big picture. 
To be really exhaustive, it would also be nice to integrate kNewStuff elements in such page so that one can track how many GB is spending in icon packs :)

I am not sure this falls into what Discover aims to do...

At the moment we show how much space each application takes, that should be enough.

We do, but I think the requested feature could be useful.

If we implemented Bug 423344, then each category could have a "total disk space" tabulation for all items in that category, and it would more or less implement what's requested here without being too heavyweight IMO.

On second thought, this is basically implemented in the manner requested here.
