On which partition is your home directory located, on home partition or on root partition?

• If you have a separate home directory, increase the size of your home partition.

• If you don't have a separate home directory, increase the size of your root partition to create more space for your home directory.

• Optionally GParted can also create a separate home partition if a home partition does not already exist.

New installations of Ubuntu 18.04 create one partition for everything by default, and a swap file will be created instead of a swap partition. This allows for maximum flexibility in making use of the disk space that is allocated to Ubuntu.
