I figured I might as well make it and ask forgiveness rather than permission. garf-troll

    Currently reading up on ZFS right now.

    Pro:

    • COW multi-paradigm filesystem that has been battle tested for decades.
    • snapshots compression datasets vdevs pools all 9 yards

    Con:

    • No Hibernation because your pool will eat shit and die
    • No swap partition (fine because I can use ZRAM)
    • stuck on LTS kernel releases (fine because 6.12 has sched_ext)
    • hard to install and set up (I’m using NixOS anyway)

    I was a btrfs user before but I want to send zfs snapshots directly rather than relying on something like Borg backup (good program but zfs is on a lower level that I want)
