    Seeing great results from bcachefs just makes me more sad that Kent and the other kernel devs couldn't come to an understanding to keep bcachefs in-tree. I want to use it for my storage arrays so badly, but I'm still stuck with btrfs as the only available in-tree filesystem with modern features.

      Personally I've had 0 issues with the bcachefs dkms packages from distro repos. Unlike zfs it keeps up with upstream kernel releases so it's far less hassle than running zfs dkms.

        Most normal users and especially servers have no reason to run latest upstream kernels
