Yes, and I do appreciate all the help, and thanks for your patience. 

mount | egrep -v "cgroup|rpc|tmpfs|^sys|on /dev|on /proc|on /sys|on /var"
/dev/sda1 on / type ext2 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro)
/dev/sdc1 on /media/<sdc1> type ext3 (rw,relatime,data=ordered)
/dev/sdd1 on /media/<sdd1> type ext3 (rw,relatime,data=ordered)
/dev/sdb1 on /media/<sdb1> type ext3 (rw,relatime,data=ordered)
/dev/sda3 on /home type ext3 (rw,relatime,data=ordered)
gvfsd-fuse on /run/user/1000/gvfs type fuse.gvfsd-fuse 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=1000)
/dev/sdf1 on /media/<USER>/4b4696d9-05d4-423f-acfa-707f7148f245 type ext3 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,data=ordered,uhelper=udisks2)
/dev/sdg1 on /media/<USER>/30A3-239E type vfat 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0077,codepage=437,iocharset=utf8,shortname=lower,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)

(Note: Changed user name, and names of mount points, for security reasons.)

I would just like to resolve this issue before I move on to resizing my 
partition, and installing Devuan. If this is something bigger than just 
temporary files (and it seems to me that it is), then creating a bigger root 
partition will not solve my problems. 

Like I mentioned before, I had about 2.2 gb of free space on that partition 
about a month ago, then it gradually shrank down to 165 mb. Something is not 
right there, I feel.
