is there a simple way to save space by making use of symlinks in wine prefixes?

i noticed that for every game i have added to heroic, there are like 300 MB of stuff inside the prefixes by default... i know that it isn't really good to have one prefix for all games but what if some directories in the prefixes were symlinked together so they save some space?

You're much better off using a deduplicating file system such as btrfs, which also has compression. Sharing prefixes will work until it doesn't, and you'll risk breaking all games trying to fix one
