I'm a big fan of Bcachefs, but why hasn't it attracted any corporate sponsorship? Is ZFS/XFS/Btrfs "good enough" or is everyone burnt out on "next-gen" filesys

Edit: Oh, it looks like it does have a corporate sponsor now!
- shmerl 8y agoWho is backing it?
- espadrine 8y agoIt could be elements.tv based on this article[0]. It would presumably match the described focus in the LKML update: > My current priority is reflink - as that will be highly useful to the company that's funding bcachefs development … as making copies of large audio / video files is likely a common operation in post-production.
