  Yeah, that’s strange. Is there any verbose command when making a backup that could help you see what it’s doing after the snapshot in realtime?

  Hmmm… so reading up, Timeshift doesn’t automatically delete manual backups. Have you tried removing your old manual backups and trying again? This is just a hunch, but I feel as though Timeshift is looking through all of your old backups after you manually create a new one in order to apply appropriate tags. I think that’s why it’s telling you that the maximum weekly backups have been exceeded; because its checking every one of them.

  Honestly, I’m just getting back into the Linux game after a couple years so I’m probably off, but it couldn’t hurt to delete a majority of your old, unneeded backups and check.
