From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Here's a guide I found online that has some commands that might help you figure out where your storage has gone:

How big is the partition?
27.3gb
This is /
/mnt has my 2nd hard drive. /usr is big because of wine
ncdu -x / will only show you the files stored on / without counting /mnt and other partitions.
You can usually delete files (not directories!) in /var/log safely
