    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
