That's hyperbole, it can't be taken seriously. OpenSUSE uses Btrfs by default, if there were more problems outside what's expected by md+LVM+ext4 (or XFS), which is the feature comprised by Btrfs and then some, they wouldn't have made the on-going investments they have. Facebook has been using it in production with thousands of installations for years.

You want details from people experiencing zero problems, but you don't ask for details from people who are? That's a weird way to go about conducting the necessary autopsies, to discover and fix bugs.

Anyway, I monitor the upstream filesystems lists, and they all have bugs. They're all fixing bugs. They're all adding new features. And that introduces bugs that need fixing. It's not that remarkable, until of course someone suggests only one file system is to be avoided, while also providing no details, but depends on conjecture.

I asked RX14 why they called out their lack of problems as remarkable ("survive the most fucked up situations"). It sounds strange, as I mentioned.

I don't need to ask people who've had problems because I've had them myself, in unremarkable circumstances, a while back. I'm sure I could find reports on the mailing list as well, in which others have already asked for details.
