It is a copy-on-write filesystem, basically you can make snapshots of your filesystem and rollback from grub, snapper or timeshift make it quite easy. This has saved me quite a few times from broken updates, as long as grub works and you have a working snapshot you should be able to save your system. You can check out my guide on how to do it on arch, it is primarily for me as a reminder but you should be able to understand it too. https://github.com/Deebble/arch-btrfs-install-guide On Garuda linux and openSUSE you can have it automatically set up during install.

I'm so addicted to it that I wrote an installation guide just to show off to my 'friends'. Even after months of not reinstalling, I can guarantee that I can install Arch from memory in less than 5 minutes. Arch is love, Arch is life

That's exciting! If you need any help installing, I did make an easier to understand guide, good for learning. Althought I recommend ArchInstall these days. I'm glad it can be the first experiment! I have a lot of work to do to get this thing stable. Depending on your DE/WM and other conditions, the script may throw errors so just be weary of that and don't think your system is messed up. It's just that I had no PC for 5 months and I've been back at coding for only a few days now. I rewrote the entire script and dropped probably 100 lines. Seems like I am understanding the logic behind it a lot more now and I should have a functional release this week https://github.com/wick3dr0se/Arch-Linux-Installation-Guide

You should definitely try Arch Linux! The documentation on the ArchWiki is amazing and the community is helpful. I wrote a guide on installing Arch Linux on 86_64 architecture devices and I also have a public repository on GitHub with a stripped version of my desktop with a script to automate the desktop enviornment setup. My setup uses i3wm, feh for wallpaper, thunar, xfce4 terminal, vim as IDE, very basic stuff. I made the guide, script just to make installation easier for myself, since reading the ArchWiki can be cumbersome to say the least

Check out my Arch install guide I recently made for self refrence and to assist a friend. I have instructions on there for GRUB/systemd-boot as boot loaders and NetworkManager/systemd-networkd for networking tools. I use systemd everything because it works very well and I've never had a single issue. Using GRUB in the past I had trouble removing it from multiboot setups and I'd have so much bloat from different themes and versions of GRUB. I prefer to install my boot loader directly in to my EFI system partition, mounted at /boot and then I can manage all my boot files and entries there. You should definitely check it out! systemd-boot auto detects Windows in the EFI partition. I would suggest using NetworkManager for a simple use case, it's configureless and setup just by enabling the service daemon
