My Other is showing ~80G space consumed. I can't locate and not sure how to cut this one even at least half. Cleared cache and also optimized my memory already. I've done all those things. Just need to know how to get rid of this one if possible. Currently using Catalina 10.15.4!

Amazing! The omnisweeper did the trick. Now I was able to see the folder that's been eating up a huge chunk of space! Now I have tons of space available!

Try something like OmniDiskSweeper for a GUI to get a good look at itemized file size and location:
OmniDiskSweeper http://www.omnigroup.com/more
alternatively from the Terminal.app, more detail copy and paste the command line:
File size, and finding missing GB— list the items in the home folder with the sizes, including invisible items.
sudo ** -h -d 1 ~/
File size, and finding missing GB —will list the items in root with the sizes, including invisible items.
sudo ** -h -d 1 /
Done, done, and done. I have maximized everything already as shown in the screenshot from my post. Thanks, though!
