We've all heard the "my 100TB NAS is full of Linux ISOs" joke but how many of you actually hoard ISOs? I just noticed I have ~100GB, so not that many though definitely way more than I need (I just like to try new distros on my VMs and I never delete them after).

tbh I should just delete the old ISOs I have as well, they're practically useless since the package repos don't even support them anymore

I keep them around just in case I run into something that requires an old kernel.
