@TomWijsman Raspberry Pi questions have always been on topic here, and it's been made clear before, so, we've decided on that (or, actually, no decision had to be made really). Also, you can use df once you've installed it, which kind of defeats the purpose of asking the question – the image you can download is not the same size as the space it takes up after being installed. If you think the question doesn't show enough research effort, you're free to downvote it of course.

You want to know because you need an appropriate amount of memory for the Raspberry Pi. | |
