    BCacheFS is the best Linux filesystem now that storage costs a premium.

    You can mix devices of different sizes and types on bcachefs. You can have foreground and background devices to balance performance and also different compression settings for foreground and background transactions.

    You can set replicas=N to the individual file or directory on bcachefs. For example files you can just re-download or re-build. Likewise you can set a higher number of copies to important files.

      Sure, when it's mature...

        Yeah, and I think Overstreet might be going hard on AI, so not sure how that might effect the project

          If you have "refine until it's perfect and don't screw with things you don't understand" thoroughly ingrained, along with the dangers of overconfidence, you'll do fine with AI.

          Not everyone gets it though, that's for sure.

          And, if you want to know if it's mature, I'd trust the user reports over the one liners :)
