@rio @twilightkiddy to be fair, new fedora installer is atrocious.
Few weeks ago I wanted to do manual partitioning + LUKS (which was possible in old anaconda) and option just... wasn't there. I'm not using btrfs, because I value my performance and data (btrfs not only preforms noticeably worse than ext4, it also explodes if you look at it wrong).
Didn't have time/spoons for doing it by hand, so I just grabbed a stick with Alpine and went with it.
