I like btrfs because it is just a `cinst winbtrfs` away on win32
- baq 6y agohow is it possible that something created by basically one dude in his spare time on windows is working well when there are dozens of developers trying to implement it correctly in the linux kernel? or perhaps my impression after this recommendation is wrong and this actually isn't working well? much confuse

I don't think there is any case where this WinBTRFS would work better than the Linux implementation, but the Linux implementation is solid enough - if BTRFS is good enough for Synology NASes (https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/Btrfs https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/Btrfs), it's good enough for me. I wonder what led you to this line of thinking though. It reminds me of people being amazed at $NEWER_TECH just because it had less time to accumulate bug reports.
