@gemlog I don't have anything against btrfs — it mostly works, it is more feature-rich than ext4 and definitely more resilient. It's just that I don't need any of that for my laptop. I have a Micron M510DC SSD in it that can handle sudden poweroffs really well — capacitors and whatnots. All the data is throwaway anyway, what isn't I have backed up otherwise. Performance is also not an issue, but maybe I can get better battery life. I didn't use snapshotting or subvolumes so I got rid of it.

@gemlog I could make use of that on my workstation, it still has Windows and Mac OS X which I sometimes need and it has dual disk mirrored arrays for each of the systems. I wanted to install Void on my older dual Xeon Mac Pro. ZFS could actually shine there as it has ECC RAM, but I gave that one to a friend a couple of years ago and looks like she still uses it. Well, maybe later.
