I hought that you could delete most of what is in the /home partition
and it wouldn't affect your system.
If you have apps writing data there, you might try
#du |less as each user to see who is hogging the disk. It shows the byte count
for each directory. (Or as su, du /home/<username> |less) The |less, of
course, shows the output a page at a time with the ability to page backward.
("man" is your friend)
du is a simple tool that can spot problems quickly.
