Well said. Linux is a treasure for mankind. Mars is not the end of its journey with human but only a new beginning. Looking forward to where it can take us to in the next 30 years #30YearsOfLinux #LinusTorvalds

OpenZFS on Linux is great (agree that it's more mature and business grade solution), however, relying on DKMesS (non Ubuntu) to rebuild modules after each kernel upgrade isn't that pleasant. The best tool is the one that does what you need at the best cost, choose wisely ;-)

The default partitioning scheme on @fedora 33 Workstation (including all desktop spins) has been changed to @btrfs bread and butter ;-) Even /boot can now be on a btrfs volume.

Good points raised by @2_5adm1ns Ep 12 @OpenZFS @btrfs with scheduled snapshots provide a rollback mechanism to painlessly deal with ransomware. Obviously snapshot's "go back in time" ability has a lot more to offer, take snapshots folks ;-)

The "Managing the @btrfs File System" chapter in Oracle Linux 8 Docs is NOT bad, in fact a quite good quickstart guide for noobs ;-) docs.oracle.com/en/operatingโ€ฆ

Butter FS - Chris Mason & Avi Miller pronounced that way a lot when the former worked for Oracle (latter still does) in the early days, later on widely adopted in talks and popular podcast shows from @LinuxUnplugged @LinuxActionNews @SelfHostedShow @DestLinuxPod @2_5adm1ns etc.
Replying to @nixcraft
I always used B T R F S. But I saw videos where they are using butter F S. I believe both of them are correct as per wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs

Very good points raised in the @SelfHostedShow Ep 25 by Jon from @UnraidOfficial @btrfs is perfect for self-hosted home consumer grade storage solutions with mixed spec HDDs using old PCs, as long as users know what to use & when to avoid its raid{5,6} Read the Btrfs Wiki ;-)

Be aware of Btrfs raid5/6 serious data-loss bugs btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.โ€ฆ Consider using ZFS on Linux before the bugs are fixed.
