Just noticed this really useful GUI tool that was not around a year ago or so when I switched my Home folder partition to Btrfs. It seems to cover all the generally used type of Btrfs features you’d use including running and monitoring scrubs or balance operations, and even viewing and browsing snapshots, with options to restore individual files.

    Thanks 👍 I need to try noatime if that would help. The CPU on my home server is crappy enough that I’ve just skipped even trying the compression out. Might still work with zstd, let’s see at some point in the future…
