But it has been eating data as recently as 2018 [1] and the Debian wiki warns strongly against using compression that is dated for 2020 [2]. The project will already see a large number of new bugs thanks to the wider breadth of hardware, why throw in an additional variable when you can flip it on in six months anyway? 1: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg81293.html 2: https://wiki.debian.org/Btrfs#Warnings _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
