Introduction#

Im using Omarchy as my main OS for a while, and I want to share my experience with you. Omarchy is a Arch-based distribution that focuses on simplicity and customization.

Disk full with snapshots#

• Omarchy uses Btrfs as the default filesystem, which allows it to create snapshots of the system. However, if you have a lot of snapshots, it can fill up your disk space. To check how many snapshots you have, you can run the following command:

1
sudo btrfs subvolume list /

1
[sudo] password for lch:
2
ID 256 gen 49759 top level 5 path @
3
ID 257 gen 49759 top level 5 path @home
4
ID 258 gen 49759 top level 5 path @log
5
ID 259 gen 48440 top level 5 path @pkg
6
ID 260 gen 48440 top level 256 path var/lib/portables
7
ID 261 gen 48440 top level 256 path var/lib/machines
8
ID 262 gen 49714 top level 256 path .snapshots
9
ID 263 gen 49713 top level 257 path @home/.snapshots

1
sudo btrfs subvolume delete ./snapshots/7

• Let the system balance the disk to free up space

1
sudo btrfs filesystem balance start -dusage=50 /

Extra themes#

Look at the Omarchy themes section in the manual for more themes, or you can install themes from GitHub using the following command:
