To be clear, I'm not saying distros are setting it up "wrong" just not..correctly? As in, if I setup a filesystem I would assume most distros would set it up with best practices in mind.
What I'm trying to convey is most of the time when I help someone out with btrfs issues it always turns out they haven't been running regular scrubs or balances and their distro didn't setup anything so they didn't know. Or they don't understand how much diskspace they have because their distro's docs still have them running du instead of "btrfs filesystem usage".
For specific distros, arch/arch-derivatives had autodefrag as a default mount option which caused some thrashing a while back and IIRC Debian still doesn't support subvolumes properly, as well as not installing btrfs-maintenance.
