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/'.
# See man pages fstab(5), findfs(8), mount(8) and/or blkid(8) for more info.

UUID=08e23efb-20a6-43d4-8b8e-4945653cc595 / btrfs
subvolid=5 0 0
UUID=9924-234C /boot/efi vfat
umask=0077,shortname=winnt 0 2

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?
