Putting files outside the home folder on Catalina
I have some large files in my home folder which are causing issues with Finder, and I need to store them elsewhere, but as of macOS Catalina, the root filesystem is Read-Only. I've seen some solutions involving using Recovery Mode to modify your root folder's permissions, but is there honestly no-where you're supposed to put stuff outside of ~/ without doing this?
One place that Apple recommends/allows is /Users/Shared.
