    So two filesystems that are essentially shunned from the Linux kernel and permanent second-class citizens, and one that was removed from Red Hat and has a questionable history of reliability. Oh boy which do I choose?

    I'm saying ZFS on another OS.

      no thanks to red hat. i switched to debian for servers. fedora fortunately still supports btrfs.

      zfs is shunned. can't really get around that copyright issue. bcachefs just hit a setback, which i am hopeful will eventually be resolved.

        Eh. Just wait until Oracle goes bankrupt due to their AI misinvestments & see where ZFS rights end up.
