could not mount disk enter error 119930868.
Not useful with force mount or firstAD operations.
Found that APFS is extremely unreliable after 2 times of experience of losing tons of photos.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.7
Thanks for reply Rudegar!
I actually tried anything method I can find from community, but no one work for the time being. As below:

What's ridicules is that when Apple says it could not mount, even firstAd can not help any more:
the 3rd party software can actually read the filesystem, which Apple created and can't read, and recover files from the container which Apple created but cannot recover nothing!
Does Apple really care about the heavy users who need deep-diving usage?
Since the 3rd party software is quite expensive in recovering more files, I'd like to find another ways out of this.
