snapper_systemd_boot
The aim of this tool is to automatically create boot entries for systemd-boot from snapshots created by snapper. While I've tried to make this generic enough to be useful for others there are probably places where it's currently specific to my particular environment. If there's anything I can do to help it work for you feel free raise an issue or submit a PR.

Rollback a root snapshot without rescue media
Then you need a service that will check snapshots folder and automatically create boot entries. I have refind-btrfs, which does exactly that.

Is GRUB or Systemd-boot better for BTRFS?
rEFInd can also be used to boot into Btrfs snapshots using this automation tool.

grub broke, again!
Yes, see refind-btrfs
-
Is grub still worth using or should I switch to refind/sysmd?
It's a actually third party tool which simply automates the whole process because enabling such a feature manually is pretty cumbersome and annoying.
-
Arch on Btrfs is a perfect match!
In a similar vein, there's also https://github.com/Venom1991/refind-btrfs.

which bootloader should I use after the grub incident ?
Especially when using refind-btrfs. "This tool is used to automate a few tedious tasks required to boot into Btrfs snapshots from rEFInd. It is to rEFInd what grub-btrfs is to GRUB.". It works great.

Systemd-boot with btrfs snapshot boot?
Well.. The same way GRUB has grub-btrfs, rEFInd has refind-btrfs, which automates the whole process of booting your snapshots. Maybe you could give rEFInd a try. And honestly, I don't think that the GRUB issue will happen again. I'm using Linux for ages and it's the first time I saw it messing stuff up. Sorry if not answers your questions directly.
-
So why do so people still use GRUB?
Like GRUB has grub-btrfs to automate this process, refind has refind-btrfs. I never tested grub-btrfs, but refind-btrfs is awesome.

What's the best way to create and restore BTRFS snapshots?
I'm using snapper with refind-btrfs. The setup was confusing at first but now it works nicely.
