In my homelab I am running my nvme storage formatted with BTRFS. I like it slightly more than thin provisioning with LVM - seems a bit cleaner for my liking.

I want to understand if there is any limitation in regards to linked clones?
How does it work in this case?

It does seem to create a btrfs snapshot of template's disk and limitation described in https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/VM_Templates_and_Clones#Linked_Clone does not seem to apply as I was able to remove the template and still have the cloned VM working fine.
