It somehow changed 335G into 354G. Thinking the AppImages dir is full of
soft links of short names pointing at the long filename and had turned
the links into duplicates, that was the first thing I checked, but it
was all good soft-links, so where did the extra 19.4G's come from? Can
filesystem ext4's overhead account for that?
I suggest running rsync(1) with --dry-run, --log-file=FILE,
--itemize_changes, and whatever other options are needed to find the
differences. Please RTFM rsync(1) to choose your options. These look
useful:
--archive, -a (-rlptgoD)
--delete
--hard-links, -H
--one-file-system, -x
--sparse, -S
