I like to use org mode for cleaning up my hard drives... a little script to pipe du into something that sums the files in a directory and adds asterisks, and viola, you have a UI for finding all the large and delete-able files & directories.
I haven't used org mode for all the other cool things it can do, but I remember watching a great video about someone who uses it a lot like a Jupyter notebook.
