Which folders and files do I need to exclude from TimeShift?
Also is there a way to also exclude programs installed as .deb ?
I doing this to reduce Backup size as I have limited storage.
100GB - Windows 11
400GB - Storage
400GB - Mint
100GB - TimeShift
As the other user says, btrfs is well supported. In fact it is preferable in your case, as it allows you to use transparent compression for the whole system. In addition, btrfs snapshots are also drastically safer and faster.
So, I have to Install my whole system again? I just started before a month though.
Thank You for detailed information.
I think I should learn more about BTRFS and practice installing or converting it in VM.
You can convert it from ext4 to btrfs, but I don’t know how well it works. If you are going to do it, I suggest you check it carefully and make a backup.
