Should one use btrfs today? Nobara seems to have it as default in their installer. I don't know anything about it, am not a very technical user, want things to work with no hassle.

Today my work machine graduated from Windows 11 to Ubuntu 24.04. The hardware hasn’t changed. I would have preferred Kubuntu. They gave me ext4 instead of btrfs. But my wishes there are nice-to-haves. What they gave me is a huge step!

Worried about escalating storage costs?
We so got you covered. 🤣

Now I'm thinking about a new strategy:
- stop service
- make #btrfs snapshot (seconds at max)
- restart service
- run #borgBackup from snapshot, but via #bubbleWrap so it sees it as the original path and inodes for consistency&performance!
- run as many borg backups as desired to any remote […]

Towards simpler #btrfs raid setup with #disko:

TIL that btrfs will happily run into a "no space left on device" wall with no possibility to write metadata anymore (which is needed for balancing and thus getting out of this situation) 🤦

#RAID5 + #BTRFS, pas trop stable

Does anyone have any thoughts on #ZFS vs #Btrfs on Linux?
I've been putting off rebuilding my laptop for about 6 months because I can't make a decision.
I'm a big fan of the idea of ZFS and its tooling, but I know it'll be slower. Btrfs might do the job just well enough.

I'm shocked: it seems that Btrfs NoCOW can provide weak data integrity and lead to corruption, especially when combined with fallocate. Even if NoCOW sounds like a good idea for certain files, it can be a recipe for unexpected data corruption. #linux #sysadmin #btrfs #corruption #fallocate #nocow
