The thing I usually do is put /home on a separate partition, taking up
most of the storage space. The OS itself only needs a few dozen gig or so.

Another thing is to allocate a second partition the same size as the OS
one, but left initially unused. That way, you can later switch to a
different OS but have it mount the same /home partition, saving the
trouble of moving files across.
