Not to mention Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, its de facto indie spiritual successor. He's behind a few tracks and the style is alive and well imo!

Pretty much, yeah. At some point I remember the recommendation being having a separate /boot as well due to incompatibilities with GRUB's save default option iirc, not sure that's a thing anymore.
Anyway, you usually set that up during the install process, although I'm not sure graphical installers let you handcraft btrfs subvolume mount points or even select them as such these days. Last I checked at least they either just used a default layout (@ and @home with Ubuntu, for instance) or treated it as a single volume with no further options.
Yup, I feel you. It's something I've always wanted myself, and I find myself hoping the OSS alternatives eventually implement something similar. For now I just make do with things like tealdeer and whatnot.
Edit: Just stumbled upon navi, the interactivity looks a lot closer to what we want than tldr and friends at least
They do have Linux and Windows versions coming and claim they're going to gradually open source it so there's that, but yeah, doesn't exactly inspire that much confidence lol
Closest I can think of is Warp, although right now it's still closed source and Mac only. If there are others I've missed I'd love to learn more!
I've been using Hetzner with borg for a while now and it's been super solid, can't be beaten price wise either as far as I've looked
There's a server federation feature request currently marked as planned, so some form of that is probably coming at some point!
