System backup software question.
What system backup software can you recommend? In the past on Ubuntu I tested Timeshift, and it looks really cool. But the "main problem" is thing, that some options not work in Fedora: https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift, specifically BTRFS. What does it mean, this is a problem?

Try / Ripgrep in Y Minutes
A bit of an aside, but I really like "guides to things we otherwise take for granted". So few man pages are built around example use cases, but those are often what make the case for a tool!
A similar spirit to projects like https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/ , but this has a lot more useful detail.
The ripgrep author has a blog post on performance and benchmarking that is an interesting read in itself: https://blog.burntsushi.net/ripgrep/
