Default btrfs mount options and subvolume layout

[Chrysostomus]

@TriMoon

Keep in mind that BTRFS only uses the mount options of the first sub-volume mount command used, i don’t know if this applies to the whole system or just a single drive.

Chattr +C /home?

@TriMoon

This could be mounted as a tmpfs IMHO

Good idea

@TriMoon

Or perhaps create sub-volumes inside of sub-volumes to better preserve the tree hierarchy.

I would very specifically want to avoid nested subvolumes because it

• makes restoring snapshots really messy
• prevents unused subvolumes from being automatically pruned
• is not supported by timeshift
