A lot of people recommend "Storage Analyzer & Disk Usage" by Anton
Patapovich but personally I don't recommend any apps that have ads.

While any idiot can find the best app that has ads, it takes intelligence to
find the best FOSS apps that don't stoop to that level of unwanted
intrusiveness.
One of the better FOSS storage analyzers is "DiskUsage" by Ivan Volosyuk

Not far behind in utility is the free ad-free "Diskinfo", by Kuder Apps

Or try Storage Truth, by Scary Alien if you want to know what space is only
available to your apps for their storage and data storage use.

And, if you wish to live dangerously, you can have something like the "SD
Maid" by darken actually do the cleanup of your partitions for you.

Each of the free, ad-free, gsf-free, google-free apps above does something
different to help you identify (and perhaps clean) out storage wastage.

I've had them all. IMHO, they're essentially the same.
As you move up from Android 9 you don't lose much, you don't gain much.
