I was wondering if anyone here has attempted the new “COW filesystem for Linux that won’t eat your data”.
It’s supposedly has been stable since the start of 2023. I’m willing to give it a try on Arch, but before I do, I’d like to hear if anyone has faced any issues with it.

I am unfamiliar with this filesystem, and am curious about it. Could someone explain to me its benefits over btrfs?

From what I understand:
- it has all btrfs features
- it’s as performant as ext4 (with COW enabled)
- it’s more stable than btrfs
- it has built-in encryption, (no LUKS needed)

I want to try it, but I’m definitely gonna wait a while first.
