Btrfs Assistant came preinstalled in my distro. Is there any danger in running buttermanager alongside other btrfs GUIS?

Hi @bitnom

Absolutely not. You can install ButterManager and use it without any problem. After installing ButterManager you will have to configure it, i.e. you will have to define all the subvolumes you want to manage with ButterManager and where the snapshots that you create will be stored for example.

ButterManager gives you the ability to upgrade your system (including snaps and recently flatpak applications) and take care about the automatic creation of snapshots for you.

Check the documentation to configure ButterManager properly and give it a try if you want :)

Best,
