That's certainly a good point; I believe this might be coming next if the current Change proposal makes it to the final release, but we don't want to to take on too many changes at once. Some tools like snapper only need to be adapted, but if we want, e.g., good integration with desktop environments like GNOME and KDE, it might be easier to make that investment knowing the filesystem is already the new default and we're committed to keeping it the default. I, for one, would like to see something like Timeslider for btrfs (OpenSolaris Desktop / "Java" (sic) Desktop System used to have it) - https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Autosnap#Timeslider Thanks, -- Michel Alexandre Salim profile: https://keybase.io/michel_slm chat via email: https://delta.chat/ GPG key: 5DCE 2E7E 9C3B 1CFF D335 C1D7 8B22 9D2F 7CCC 04F2
