I heard that i have to use a rom trimmer to play nds games on twilight menu without taking up a lot of storage space, but I also heard that doing that damages the roms.
I've been trimming my ROMs for years and very rarely ran into issues as a result and those were super rare cases with very specific ROM dumps. So I would say that from my experience, it's very safe to trim your ROMs
I did the same with my GBA and my NDS ROMs to get everything to fit on a 128GB MicroSD card. I have yet to see a problem with any of the ROMs I've tried after trimming them.
I have a 64gb card i never needed to trim roms, with all the nds/ dsiware library that i have on there (close to ~500 titles combined) its only about half full rn. I did some trimming before using NDSTokyoTrim (mentioned above), i think there are trim settings, just don't trim the nds file too much and you'll be fine.
