The save file size keeps fluctuating
I'll start by saying that I'm not the only one who has encountered this problem, but I haven't found any discussions about it online. My save file doesn't weigh that much - or rather, it didn't weigh...

Hello slvkkvika.
Fluctuations in your Sims 4 save file size are completely normal. The size changes depending on in-game actions, as the game actively stores data for your households, inventory items, photographs, and built lots. Using the "Save As" function or the game's automatic culling and cleanup processes can cause the file size to drop or jump dynamically.
Hi!! I know that save file sizes can fluctuate depending on what I’ve done in the game. But not by +20 MB. I’ve been playing this game for years, not just a couple of days, and I’ve never seen fluctuations like this before. That’s exactly why I’m reaching out - this genuinely looks like a bug, not normal behavior. I clear my cache regularly, always use 'Save As...', and frequently create saves in entirely new slots, so that’s definitely not the issue here.
Unless you are experiencing any issues within your game coming from it, I wouldn't worry about it. 😊
