   I think the reviews should also include the social aspect of these filesystems...

   There is and have been many promising and exciting FS to replace the old boring ones, but for storage you not only want to avoid technical issues but also maintainer(s) drama...

      Reiserfs was the OG drama fs

         That's what I meant, it's always risky to rely on a single person for such an important subsystem as storage... I'm also very sad that bcachefs has been kicked out of the kernel, it is really a very promising FS.

         So that leaves btrfs which always seemed complex and brittle to me (compared to zfs at least)
