My system data is taking up 68.29GB of my storage and that’s over half of it!! I only have a few apps and have deleted thousands of photos and whatever I delete, system data just takes up that free storage. What can I do to fix this?

My system data is taking up 68.29GB of my storage, which is more than half of my overall storage. I keep deleting pictures and videos to free up storage but every time I get more, system data just eats it up. How do I stop my system data from taking all of my storage?

iPhone 13, iOS 16
