Updates filling too much space ?
I run the updater frequently, and as well as the security updates install most of the other updates. There are so many. Afterwards 'sudo apt autoremove' is run and I assume what remains is needed software.
/dev/mapper / is filling up quickly and will soon be bloated.
Will I have to resize the partition ? Not sure how to do it.
What can be removed ? Two or three programs have already been removed with synaptic. I'd rather keep the various programs that are packaged with GNU/Linux Trisquel even though it's a mystery to me what half of them do. :)

These disappeared and I can't find an edit button so here they are again.
Try to remove apt temporary files executing "sudo apt-get clean" on the terminal emulator. With respect to the attached files problem see https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/trisquel-website/-/issues/9#note_9363
Thanks it cleared 4% space on /dev/mapper /

Resizing your root partition might be good idea. What is the output of "df -Th" and "lsblk"? (sorry, I cannot see your screen captures, but command line output will probably give more information anyway).
