How do I know how much storage I used?

Below my profile it says "Your account has 27 GB storage" I haven't uploaded everything in the folder yet and it's total size is 817 MB, where can I see how much storage I have used? I have th free basic with 2 GB storage.

    Just yesterday I was able to click on my account icon at the top right of the page. It showed me how much storage as well as a small usage bar. That has now disappeared. Can you please add that back again? Instead of having to go through 5 clicks to see my account information? You've gone backwards for user interface design. If you continue to make it harder for people to use your platform they might go elsewhere and not come back. Please return this feature. Thankyou.

    It's deliberate. It's to keep you guessing because they want you to upgrade
