I would set up your router, turn off ssid broadcast and forget about it. It’s doubtful they have the equipment to find an access point that doesn’t actively announce itself to the world .
Edit: it means you will have to manually add your wifi network to your devices by typing in the ssid on them but other than that there shouldn’t be any issues
Good to know. I know a couple of people in the steam deck world who dual boot windows and steamos and have their games on a btrfs partition that use it so they don’t need games installed twice … I have no desire to do this so I have never tried.
Have you seen/tried https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs ?
I have heard it is decent but have never had a need to try it.
Btrfs and df don’t get along. There are all sorts of internals to btrfs that non btrfs utils ignore. You should run
sudo btrfs filesystem df /
sudo btrfs device usage /
It will give you a better picture of what is going on.
Balancing my help as someone above pointed out, or you may need to boot to a live media of some kind and rebuild the free space cache. Especially with btrfs I encourage people to join their mailing list for help. The devs are awesome and can help you get sorted out.
Btrfs uses subvolumes instead of traditional partitioning. It takes some getting use to but it is totally normal for btrfs.
Duh… Fedora not Ubuntu/Debian/Et al.
sudo dnf clean
It’s been a while since I have run a redhat derivative… I think that was either the last iteration of mandrake or the first iteration of mandriva.
And the journal isn’t garbage persay, it’s a bunch of logs and whatnot that can be useful in certain diagnostics… Especially with op running all those snap packages. But in this case, clearing it is probably a better option then not clearing it
Fedora is systems, right? The easiest way to gain some (temporary) space is to clean out the journal and whatever logs you don’t need. It can grow quite big.
sudo journalctl --vacuum-size=100M
Will shrink it to something manageable. This will buy you some time to clean up until the journal grows again.
Also, clearing the apt cache will probably help free up some root partition space
sudo apt clean
Your root partition where packages are stored and all the logs and transactional databases might be full even if your home directory has tons of free space.
Maybe it depends on the access point. When I turn it off on my router there are no beacons sent. Unless you specifically probe the ssid it doesn’t announce itself. BUT granted when you make a connection the ssid does show up during the handshake. If you were watching at the exact moment of connection then it would be detectable. I suppose they could use a mass deauther device and cause new connections and detect while that is happening but they they would need to triangulate the location of said ap… Again a lot of extra equipment.
