@Saorsa Funnily enough while I don't think this solves any of the problems (setting up a snapshotting strategy on btrfs is a pain in my experience and I wouldn't expect casual users to figure that out, let alone the catastrophic corrruption which is still known to happen on btrfs), my backup strategy is actually somewhat related as I zfs send/receive a large zfs pool onto some hard drives that I keep in various places around the country and rotate around when I visit them.
But again I don't think this solves any of the fundamental issues, because I had to write a damn shell script for doing this!

Suppose it does work if you happen to use OpenSUSE which implement all the moving parts such that the end user doesn't have to think about it. But unless it is explicitly configured for the person beforehand, the setup isn't very intuitive and requires intermediate experience when manually partitioning at installation. @ada@catcatnya.com
