Correct me if I’m wrong, but everybody considers bcachefs to still be in alpha.
Only a complete idiot would use an alpha stage filesystem in production and then whine about bugs and data corruption.
I think this post smells of clickbait.
The lead developer certainly doesn’t. He maintains that it’s got several systems in production.
Oh, wow look at that. Last time I checked it was still ~“for testing purposes only, do not use in production”.
And that’s Linus’ doing, mostly. Kent insists it is production ready. I wouldn’t touch it with a 10-foot pole, at least for now.
Yep, me neither. I’m looking forward to see how it compares with zfs and btrfs when it is ready, but for now I wouldn’t consider it for anything.
Is this the same as BtrFS?
Confusingly, no, they are completely unrelated things, despite how similar the names look. (This confused me as well until somewhat recently.)
