I have been using Btrfs for several months, and it has been stable enough for me. It is a file system that can be used as a storage driver for Linux containers like LXD, Incus, or Docker. If you want to install Btrfs support on #Debian #Linux and format & mount a disk drive, see my tutorial https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-install-btrfs-on-a-debian-linux-12-11/ #sysadmin #devops

Using it for a laptop, it automatically takes and syncs my btrfs snapshots to my server, making sure that I don't forget to backup anything! -
Nazo (nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 15-Feb-2024 08:37:08 JST Nazo @nixCraft I switched to btrfs quite some time ago since it's supposed to be a lot more SSD-friendly. Never had any problems with it. At least from a normal user perspective. I don't do any of its more advanced stuff I admit.
Really EXT4 (which really is mostly just extensions to 3 which is really mostly just extensions to 2) is positively ancient and was never really meant to become a permanent standard. Long since past time for distros to move on from it.
