Huh, ok, so I see some differences there. Did you configure timeshift separately afterwards, maybe for another type of backup?
This is my output:

To my knowledge, this what is constructed in step #6 of the tutorial, though mine would have been the unencrypted one posted by 2000 in another thread.
It could be that somehow in modifying #6 for the unencrypted setup I messed it up.
