Can someone clarify how btrfs + snapper works?

I did my homework of reading all the wiki, and linked articles, but i'm still massively lost on the actual implementations of it.

I followed the guidelines, and everything *works*, but I can't verify that it works, and even if it does i don't understand it.

So my root drive partition is 15gb btrfs and my /home is another partition that contains the rest of the drive space (~230gb), also with btrfs.

Some articles suggest that this isn't how btrfs should be formatted, but also failed to explain why and how things should be formatted.

In addition, I seem to be incapable of grasping the concept of 'subvolumes'. This is documented and there are tons of articles, but they might as well be written in italian because I didn't understand a thing.

Can you maybe shed a bit of light to this incurable noob?

Thanks!


very n00b.
