Try using the Google Backup and Sync to download your contents. Then use your Finder/Explorer right click -> Get info options. I admit not ideal.

Better than Finder/Explorer would be something like QDirStat/WinDirStat to get a recursive size count, with graphical display.

That's nice for drive, but doesn't include any photos/video in photos.google.com.

So basically you have a single google storage pool that's reported at the bottom of the gmail.com interface. But now you can't use any of the google drive related tools to see what is consuming all your storage.

The photos.google.com is time based, so it's very hard to see what your largest files are.
