I do not think you can prevent the use of "storage".  However, I located
the folders in my profiles and created a script to delete the contents
of the subfolders and then delete the subfolders themselves.  I run that
script before doing system backups.  Yes, I could merely block my backup
routine from including "storage"; but by deleting the data, I recover
disc space.

Since you are using Linux and I am using Windows, I cannot suggest how
to create the script for your system.
