Nah man, 3 months ago i had fedora 38 btrfs, timeshift refused to work because subvolumes wasn't done, but i installed everything in auto gui mode, i did them by the manual after installation, timeshift started working just fine, a week further update to fedora 39 came, i updated, everything broke because of subvolumes, i loaded fedora recovery mode from grub, tried to roll back with timeshift btrfs, it rolled back to 38 but everything was still broke, and more over, whole ssd with this installation became locked, had to recover data from completely locked up ssd, in the middle of the process it locked even further, so i couldn't even copy some files when disk was connected as external

Have no idea what RH did that would do that during an update.

I manually set up BTRFS every time, haven't had any problems. But, I use Void, not Fedora.
