A lot of the horror stories I've seen regarding btrfs are due to misuse / abuse of btrfs far more than actual issues or bugs,
Misuse / Abuse? Seriously, who sets out to abuse a file system on which they depend? That is the most absurd claim I've seen in years. Here's how it works in the real world: You install your OS, select a file system, and put all your stuff there. You seldom give much thought to the selection because its mostly esoteric anyway and one is pretty much as good as another for any given purpose. Over the subsequent years You don't expect to tip-toe around your file system fearing it will break. And you are astounded if it is ever necessary to do anything beyond the normal boot up fsck. It NEVER rises to the level of a horror story, let alone a "lot of horror stories". Then you meet btrfs.... You should have run away from her when you saw all the piercings and tattoos and those large mesh stocking, but your friends at the distro recommended her when you installed. And that's when the fight started... -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
