    I want to setup snapshots but I don’t really understand how to do that properly yet in a way that lets me shoot the snapshots over to my smb storage like Apple’s Time Machine does.

    Spent like a few hours learning about and setting up snapshots, only to never every use them lol. I guess I just don’t break my computer often enough nowadays. Copy-on-write is great tho, especially for making quick backups of a large directory structure before running that risky shell one-liner.
