Is there a way to mount my entire Synology disk as a drive to my computer?
You can obviously do it separately on each share. You can use Storage Analyzer to get some of the functionality, but it's not quite as easy as WinDirStat or the like. If you've got some time and willingness to experiment, you can probably get qdirstat (https://github.com/shundhammer/qdirstat) to run in Docker, and mount the volume in a way to analyze it.

- Deleted files taking up space
- Does a treemap tool exist for analysing space usage?

2 ext4.vhdx files
I'm a big fan of WinDirStat to help me figure out why I don't have any disk space left. It's shiny. And also free. (And then you can use QDirStat from inside your linux distros with basically no learning curve.)

Fsearch, a fast file search utility for Unix-like systems
Hi, author here.
Likely the most significant benefit is the more powerful query language. For example you can also search by file modification date or size and use boolean operators. https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/wiki/Search-syntax

Bfs 3.0: The Fastest Find Yet
Yes, FSearch is the one I use, but it's not as great, per FSearch's dev:
> However, FSearch doesn't automatically detect changes made to the file system and update its index then. This is on the roadmap (it's called inotify support) but it'll never work as smooth as Everything on Windows, because the Linux kernel isn't particularly good at reporting filesystem changes
https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/issues/26
Everything is comprehensive + instant + always up-to-date, that's so awesome a combo it's a pity it's Windows only

baloo is using 36 GB space, is that normal?
If you don't need content indexing, Fsearch is an alternative. I've been using it for over a year now and it's been working flawlessly. Results are near instant and the db is in single digit megabytes.

Name the tools you can't live without!
Still remember those days of arguing on /g/ where linux longbeards stallman fanboys tried to say how this or that tool was good search... but I dont want to just find something, I want to use it that second, and I want the entire system indexed... after getting some webms to showcase that instant feel it got the message across, though later someone appeared with some dmenu trickery being similarly fast and useful... anyway Fsearch that appeared soon after me is the real deal.
What are some alternatives?
