#[SOLVED] Problem Creating BTRFS subvolume for Home folder

So I have my Filesystem set up already with the home folder located in the /@ subvolume. It looks like it is taking up about 150GB in total, and I have about 500GB on the drive. The problem is, I think it's actually taking up more when considering the snapshots I have of the /@ subvolume for backups so when I try to copy the home folder to a new subvolume it's failing by running out of space on the drive. Anyone have any thoughts on how I can fix this without nuking my snapshots? I also have weekly backups on a remote drive so it wouldn't be the end of the world if I needed to nuke the snapshots

when viewing the space taken by the home folder in dolphin it reports 750gb, but in filelight it reports 150gb. I know there are some quirks with drive space reporting in dolphin with btrfs and subvolumes

ya know what nvm, this can be ignored. I'm fucking stupid, I have another HD mounted in my home folder that's accounting for the remainder of that 600GB LOL
