Compression is easy to remove.  Just remove the ",compress=zstd:1" part of the entry in the /etc/fstab file.  It's not retroactive though, so any files that are already compressed will stay that way until rewritten.  It's also per subvolume, so if it's only your /home files that you're concerned about, you can leave compression on for /. Although given your earlier actions, /home might actually be part of / now instead of being a separate subvolume.

Thank-you, Samuel.

Ummm...  Problem...
Here is my /etc/fstab:
- - - - -

# /etc/fstab
# Created by anaconda on Sat Oct  4 13:00:59 2025

# Accessible filesystems, by reference, are maintained under '/dev/disk/'.

I also did an "ls -l /etc/fstab".
The file is dated Oct. 04.  So it's still as installed.
What you suggest that I delete isn't and never was there.

Big question:
If I re-install and stick with btrfs, is there a way to turn off the compression globally during the install process?
