People love talking smack about btrfs. Here's some real insight from Josef
Bacik though at
https://lwn.net/ml/fedora-devel/[email protected]/
and
https://lwn.net/ml/fedora-devel/[email protected]/.
Read through the chain. For those who don't know him, Josef is a core btrfs
developer. I also quite like Josef personally, he is a good developer,
great to work with and is personally invested in helping folks out.

This is a solid fs, there are times when I see the reactions from users and
I really wonder why I do open source work anyway. I have lost data on all
sorts of filesystems, and I have also been at the end of stupid mistakes
made. Almost everything is recoverable if you stop, and ask for help and
keep your ego out of it.
