What's wrong with btrfs?
This is a rather old form and in its early days btrfs was not very stable.
People don't know how CoW FSes work π€·.
My only gripe with btrfs is that I've had systems come down from a single drive failure in raid quite "often" when compared to other FS.
ZFS is a ram hog but I always could do a live resilvering without downtime.
btrfs's RAID features are not production-ready, and at this point I doubt they ever will be. See:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs#Implemented_but_not_recommended_for_production_use
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Btrfs
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Btrfs-Warning-RAID5-RAID6
ZFS is definitely more robust.
Nothing these days
Can we make it real?
I asked for the source, we'll see if we get it π.
Found a pdf: https://heinicke.xyz/nixos/alfa.pdf
Ah, this is even better, I could actually edit it as vector π.
Thank you kind stranger π.
h--how did you manage that
Fucking Allan, always fucking shit up.

- My rootfs has been btrfs up to 2 days ago, when I switched back to TKFS (The King File System, AKA ext4) because I realized I have no use for the features of BTRFS.
What is the problem with using BTRFS for rootfs?
I think that this form is actually old, from when BTRFS was quite unstable. That point on the list made me chuckle.
It tends to break when you force power off the machine in my experience, where ext4 is super resilient to that kind of stuff.
Thats my experience at least.
Ext4 can't detect data corruption while btrfs can. Btrfs has only bee stable for a handful of years now. It had way to many early adopters that were burned
I've been trying to decide what distro I want to go with for my desktop (Microsoft recently pushed copilot onto my windows 10). While I like the idea of Arch (fast, lightweight) and the fact that it'd be fully compatible with whatever I get on my steam deck, stuff like this makes me think a Debian-based distro would be better.
(That and the fact that most Linux stuff is designed for Debian and I don't have enough experience to try and rebuild Debian stuff for Arch)
The aur usually has what I need, only have had to manually build once... Before I found the aur package. Endeavoros is a good easy way to get into arch if you are worried about the manual configuration.
Alright, cool. Why not Manjaro? I did a quick Google search and saw people saying Manjaro is bloated in comparison to EndevorOS, are there other reasons as well?
Yeah, they like forgot to reupload a new cert 3 times.
And they hold packages back. EndeavourOS uses Arch's repos directly, whereas Manjaro has it's own repos. EndeavourOS is just Arch with a GUI installer and some handy prepicked choices, like a DE.
