The current blockchain size is 402.55 GB for Apr 25 2022
Bitcoin Blockchain is roughly 389 gigabytes
Both are inaccurate.
Achow101 was correct. Mine is 428 GB (459 billion bytes).

You can reduce the reserved blocks space as a temporary solution. The default is 5%, if you make it 2%, you gain 15 GB. See for instance
this site.
Thank you for tips. I checked the tunefs and got following:
root@simba:~# tune2fs -l /dev/sda4 | grep 'Reserved'
Reserved block count: 6553600
Reserved GDT blocks: 1024
Reserved blocks uid: 0 (user root)
Reserved blocks gid: 0 (group root)
This doesn't seem like 15GB. Am I correct?
