grub-btrfs with timeshift didn’t helped me in my upgrade from fedora 38 to 39, when i rolled back with grub-btrfs, what loaded was weird mix of 38 and 39, that didn’t even let me browse my filesystem, got to disassemble laptop, get out ssd, use it as external, and even then half of the ssd was locked, ssd was new and chmod didn’t helped, even from live usb, had to copy files with testdisk and dd zero’s on whole disk for it to work again
Try having

Just don’t upgrade for a while and you become debian
It’s not like windows forcing you to reboot every Tuesday so Edge can come back
you shouldn’t be throwing boots through your windows
Man, I do this all the time. snapper and grub-btrfs has enabled all kinds of amazing things. I’m so close to just doing:
$ sudo crontab -l * * 3 * * pacman -Syu --no-confirmI’ve got separate offline backups and rescue disks, but I’m pretty confident that grub-btrfs will let me recover pretty quickly.

I YOLO upgraded an Arch install once. Turns out there’s no automatic quick and easy migration between postgres versions.
BTRFS snapshots may help, but Arch is clearly not designed around automatic updates.
Databases are the definition of software dependancy hell. They exist in the zone of pain. I love Postgres; I hate administering Postgres.
