(not an exhaustive list) 1: "Disk Space Full Because of Snapper" on https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BTRFS 2: Since 2015, BTRFS has been the default / filesystem on openSUSE, which recommends minimum / filesystem size of 20GB for EXT4, compared to 40GB for BTRFS. 3: Much more common / filesystem freespace exhausted threads on mailing lists and web forums from BTRFS users compared to EXT4 users, with the usual recommendation to delete one or more snapshots to free space. 4: https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/FAQ#Help.21_I_ran_out_of_disk_space.21 5: https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/FAQ#Why_is_free_space_so_complicated.3F 6: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-containers-122/docker-on-btrfs-using-much-space-in-var-lib-docker-btrfs-4175622037/#post5811463 -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
