How can I free up memory to install Big Sur?

I don't have enough storage on my hard drive to install Big Sur? Are there any simple ways to free up some storage?


Thanks.

If you've already followed the Apple tips on "How to free up storage space on your Mac" and you still don't have enough space, here's how I managed to free-up more space: if you use Adobe Photoshop (or any other Adobe apps), uninstall Photoshop first (using the "uninstall" utility located inside of the app folder), download Big Sur, then after Big Sur is installed successfully, re-install Photoshop.
