I’m using EndeavourOS with ext4 file system for daily usage and a dual bootable Windows for gaming. What I want to have right now is getting rid of Windows completely.

When I tried it before, I had to try multiple tweaks for a game and find which one worked on Linux. Therefore, I want to take a snapshot with BTRFS and try it until I find the right configuration.

While I have quite a bit of experience with Linux, I’ve never used BTRFS. Do you think it’s worth it?

I thought about keeping the games on the ext4 system, but I hate splitting the disk. I’m thinking of keeping the games in a non-snapshot volume.

UPDATE: I just re-installed EndeavourOS with BTRFS + snapper + BTRFS Assistant :)

    I don’t know much about immutable distros, but with a quick look, you’re probably right. It looks like Bazzite is based on Fedora atomic desktop.

      Yeah same here regarding immutable distros. I’ve only dabbled in the reading and it seems to fit your use case. ^^

      Keeping my eye on the thread for future reference. Best of luck!
