Is this a sign that my SSD died?

I noticed that it is not fixed, I can’t do a total btrfs-balance, this will produce a total mess with the boot/grub, I can’t boot to the system, I have to do a “sudo btrfs check --repair – init-extent-tree /dev/sdb1” again, but as I move the boot/grub, again without fixing it to another partition/filesystem by creating a partition exclusively to boot,
I can do:
sudo btrfs balance start -dusage=85 /
sudo btrfs balance start -musage=70 /, as is in the man btrfs-balance, which I did sometimes, without troubles.
I need to create a new partition in a already used one and I am afraid to do and messed it. I know this is not right, but I am with this rolling release a long time, and there is a lot of configs in it that I will loose if I did a new install and then the backup with rsync.

My btrfs is the simplest, does not have “dup” data, it is in a 120GiB SSD, with only the Manjaro system, which 53,2GiB is used, I don’t used it to make btrfs backups, no space fot this, the “/home” is in a different partition.
I think I did some things I shouldn’t, but it’s “working” anyway.

Sounds like you’re lucky. The problem with that is, luck is fickle. At some stage it will run out on you. And what’ll you do then?

Rather get more space somewhere, backup your configs on it and reinstall and recover the backups.

Yes I know this. I will do a total backup.

Back up your entire system to an external drive, delete and recreate the Manjaro root partition, reinstall Manjaro, and then restore your backups.

Just make sure — as I told you higher up already — that you have the correct UUID in /etc/fstab, because reformatting changes the UUID.
