    How does suse do it? I haven’t tried it in a few years and that was back when I was still learning Linux

      They make a subvolume for every traditional unix partition and the system takes automated snapshots so you can rollback the system to older configurations. I don’t actually run opensuse but I’ve dabbled with it specifically to see how they setup btrfs and you can just tell they’re invested in it.

          You can snapshot them independently and if you want you can set quotas to size restrict them. Although that latter point defeats one of the advantages of subvolumes over partitions. So really just the ability to snapshot them independently
