I think I realized what went wrong: I compressed my filesystem _after_ already having done some snapshots. I think it then duplicated all my files and basically filled my filesystem... And I did

Sorry for that! I'm happy to be wrong at least. And thank you for this great answer!

It's a bit late to ask this question, but it emerged when I noticed that
after upgrading my PC to Silverblue 34 and after compressing manually my
files, and doing some snapshots, rpm-ostree began complaining about the
absence of free space... While compsize reported that I used only 84G(o/io?)
of my 249Go filesystem... I then realized that because of the compression
and the snapshots, ostree thought that my disk was full. The same problem
happened with gnome-disk. I reported both issues[1][2].
Err, no.
btrfs has been reporting proper things in statfs that programs can rely
on, compsize is only there for you if you're curious and for debugging.
In this case your filesystem is really almost full (around 8GB free
according to your output)

That was a problem very early on and basically everyone complained df
being unuseable would break too many programs.


You probably compressed your / but have snapshots laying around that
still take up space and weren't considered in your compsize command?



If you don't trust df (statfs), you have two btrfs commands to look at
for more details; here's what it gives on my system:

# btrfs fi df /
Data, single: total=278.36GiB, used=274.63GiB
System, DUP: total=32.00MiB, used=48.00KiB
Metadata, DUP: total=9.29GiB, used=6.88GiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=0.00B

# btrfs fi usage /
Overall:
     Device size:                330.00GiB
     Device allocated:           297.00GiB
     Device unallocated:                  33.00GiB
     Device missing:                 0.00B
     Used:                       288.39GiB
     Free (estimated):            36.73GiB      (min: 20.23GiB)
     Free (statfs, df):           36.73GiB

     Global reserve:             512.00MiB      (used: 0.00B)
     Multiple profiles:                 no

Data,single: Size:278.36GiB, Used:274.63GiB (98.66%)
    /dev/mapper/slash    278.36GiB

Metadata,DUP: Size:9.29GiB, Used:6.88GiB (74.09%)
    /dev/mapper/slash     18.57GiB

System,DUP: Size:32.00MiB, Used:48.00KiB (0.15%)
    /dev/mapper/slash     64.00MiB

Unallocated:
    /dev/mapper/slash     33.00GiB


And for comparison:
# df -h /
Filesystem                Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/slash         330G  289G   37G  89% /


In all cases, the Used column actually corresponds to compressed size --
real blocks on disk and not uncompressed data size.
I have way too many subvolumes but here's an output that lists more than
289G "used"; I'm lazy so without snapshots:
# compsize -x / /home /var /var/lib/machines/ /nix
Processed 2722869 files, 1820146 regular extents (2063805 refs), 1625123 inline.

prealloc   100%      1.0G         1.0G         553M

Hm, not very convincing, adding a few (there's more, I guess adding all
of them should bring the Disk Usage column up to 289G but this just
takes too long for this mail -- the "proper" way to track snapshot usage
would be quota but I don't have these enabled here):
# compsize -x / /home /var /var/lib/machines/ /nix /.snapshots/{19,20}*/snapshot

I would suggest finding what subvolumes you may have (btrfs subvolume
list /) and cleanup old ones, I'm not sure what is used by default
nowadays (snapper?) there might be higher level commands

They might not be visible from your mountpoint if your setup mounts a
subvolume by default, in which case you can mount your btrfs volume
somewhere else with -o subvol=/ for example to show everything and play
with compsize if you want.
