Ok, I'm anticipating a firestorm of BS responses on this, but here goes
anyway.
We've now had BTRFS as the default filesystem for some time in Fedora.
However, there has been almost nothing done to take advantage of its
capabilities.
Personally, default or not I am not using BTRFS again. I got burned
once when I had problem with the / partition and found out that it's
nearly impossible to reinstall / without hosing /home too. Never again!
Thats not the fault of the filesystem, but that of a bad choice in a
pretty-but-near-useless installer. Thankfully, F38 is supposed to fix
the installer.
To me, as a person who has never used btrfs or lvm, so I know nothing,
from what I have read they seem pretty much the same to me. If a person
wanted compression, there is always squashfs. I have always been
interested in looking into btrfs, but, I have been waiting for opinions.
