[feelix]

I finished up the APFS compatible version of the software way quicker than I thought I would, and was so happy and energized that as part of my release I whipped up a quick blog post about the experience.

Indeed it's pretty light on content, it's more just a nod to Apple for making this a painless process rather than an excruciating one, as well as an early relay of the experience to others who are going to upgrade who may be harboring some concerns like I was.

The marketing for this site sucks, the software has been around since 2011 and it has nowhere near the marketshare of its competitors because it sucks. If I were really some SEO genius (and you'll see the google rankings are terrible), then this would not be the case. In short, I wish I was the evil genius that you claim, but I'm not. I'm just a dev sharing his experience with the filesystem.

In regards to it not implementing the file copying tool directly - that is covered in the article. The fact that the file copying tool was compiled in 2015 and still works flawlessly is the whole premise of the article stating that it's impressive. And it being a _file_ copying tool is the part that _makes_ it impressive. You seem to have no idea how complex the metadata, built up over 30 years without a rewrite, on HFS+ is. Take a look at BackupBouncer and the associated blog posts to get an idea of the situation. It's pretty crazy.
