I usually don't want to keep things like /var/cache/pacman/pkg, but since I'm just doing some tests I didn't want to lose my packages cache. Regarding @/.snapshots it was an unfortunate choise made by snapper and I will definitely create it into the top level, like /srv which shouldn't belong to @. By the way snapper rollbacks are yet another reason to not keep subvolid along with subvol=@ into fstab, like in the one automatically generated by genfstab. Niccolò
