Lucas and Luna dive into Btrfs, the copy-on-write filesystem that's quietly replacing ext4 across major Linux distributions. They unpack why Fedora and openSUSE defaulted to Btrfs years ago, how features like snapshots, compression, and RAID-like capabilities make it a fit for everything from single laptops to multi-disk servers, and where it still stumbles — like the RAID 5/6 code path that remains experimental after a decade. Expect specific numbers: 10-25 percent space savings with zstd compression, sub-5-second snapshot rollback times, and the real-world tradeoffs between Btrfs and ZFS. No hype, just the state of the filesystem stack in May 2026.
