Hello! Im running out of storage only 50gb left from 120 gb in my MBP 2019 13'' and when I went to system>library, I saw the entire library folder takes up 27 gb and these files inside shown in the picture takes up lots of gb individually. Can I delete these files like the dyld (10gb) and privateframworks (2gb)?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2
I wouldn't dare deleting any folder from System library.
What a user can do about storage ?

The files that you have control over are located in the Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music and Movies folders. You can use either of these two free apps, GrandPerspective or OmniDiscSweeper, to find the largest files on your drive so you can determine if they can be deleted or moved to an external HD for storage.
Note: you can empty the Downloads folder after the apps and/or updates that were downloaded have been installed or applied. Many users have found a couple of Gigabytes of files in their Downloads folder which are no longer needed.

Anything outside of the "/Users" and user folder(s) belongs to macOS system files. You should never touch anything outside of "/Users".
No.
