Which folders and files do I need to exclude from TimeShift?

Also is there a way to also exclude programs installed as .deb ?

I doing this to reduce Backup size as I have limited storage.

100GB - Windows 11
400GB - Storage
400GB - Mint
100GB - TimeShift

    I put /var/lib/flatpak in a separate btrfs subvolume. Timeshift only takes a snapshot of the root and home subvolumes.

      Oh. BTRFS is alien to me man. But a lot of people recommending it to counter the storage constraints. I have to learn it first.
