For a second I thought that the first field was:

What’s wrong with btrfs?
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://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Btrfs
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Btrfs-Warning-RAID5-RAID6
ZFS is definitely more robust.
It is true for raid 5 & 6. Raid 0, 1, and 10 are supposed to be production ready. I use raid 10 only with btrfs, anything else and I use zfs or mdadm.
Don’t forget upstream: https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Status.html
performance
opening programs was noticeably slower for me
benchmarks confirm this, and I think this is an aspect not discussed often enough
Fucking Allan, always fucking shit up.
That’s funny and sadly accurate 🤣
