      Trying to set up snapshots is what broke my system. Not sure what the issue was exactly, but BTRFS was reporting a different amount of used space than there actually was, and my snapshots started recursively backing up until everything died

      Next time I install Linux I’m going to use Ext4 and snapshots out the gate

        That’s weird. I’ve had zero issues with BTRFS and I have both compression and snapshots.

        Have you looked at bcachefs, by the way?

          Honestly, I’m kind of tired of complicated stuff. I just want a fs that works and is easy to do recovery operations on when it doesn’t work. My SSD is big enough
