Bcachefs making progress towards getting included in the kernel. My dream of having a Linux native RAID5 capable filesystem is getting closer to reality.

    Has somebody a proper comparison with BTRFS and why somebody who is using BTRFS should look into bcachefs?

      Last I checked btrfs raid 5 and 6 support was still not declared as stable.

        Neither is the support in bcachefs apparently. Erasure coding which is used for RAID 5 is marked as unstable
