Fair enough, I have no practical experience with bcachefs myself.

  Fair :) I've been trying to keep this thing (relatively) quiet and low profile until it's completely done, but it's gotten hyped. Data integrity, core IO paths, all the failure modes, all the crazy repair corner cases - these are the hard parts if you really want to get a filesystem right. These are what we've been taking our time on. I can't claim 100% success rate w.r.t. data loss, but it's been phenomenally good, with some crazy stories of filesystems we've gotten back that you'd never expect - and then it just becomes the norm. I love the crazy bug reports that really push the boundaries of our capabilities. That's an attitude that reiserfs and btrfs never had, and when I am confident that it is 100% rock solid and bulletproof I'll be lifting the experimental label.

  > I have no practical experience with bcachefs myself. Who does? When the MySQL and Postgres projects recommend it, I’ll have a look.

    That's still a ways off, but it is worth noting that bcachefs handles database workloads in cow mode with no issue.
