I don't like radial charts because the outer rings have a larger area, which makes it look like files deep in the hierarchy take more space than in reality. And also it leaves the majority of screen space unused.

I prefer the more classic treemap view, my personal favorite being the classic version of SpaceMonger but it's Windows only and very slow.



WizTree also uses a treemap view and is very fast. It's also Windows-only though.


Linux and MacOS have QDirStat: https://github.com/shundhammer/qdirstat


Thank you for this, I've always looked for a WinDirStat alternative for Linux.
