There’s been some Friday night kernel drama on the Linux kernel mailing list… Linus Torvalds has expressed regrets for merging the Bcachefs file-system and an ensuing back-and-forth between the file-system maintainer.

I’m going to switch from BTRFS at some point, but at this point that’s going to be a few years down the line.
I’d consider btrfs if they finally make their raid5/6 implementation stable. I want to work with multiple disks without sacrificing half of my storage.
Btrfs shouldn’t be used for raid 5/6
@possiblylinux127 @chris Hence their statement “I’d consider btrfs if …”.
Btrfs never really worked out for me (I think default COW doesn’t play nice with VM images) and ext4 works great.
You can disable COW for specific files btw
gods, imagine saying this to a normal user
“what the fuck is a file?”
