@lattera UFS and ZFS
Who cares about that other garbage for /?
@nuintari Probably no one cares. It was just a completely random thought/question I had.
@lattera I care!
Somewhere, someone is pondering how we port btrfs to FreeBSD, and I want this person to DIAF.

@nuintari @drwho @lattera I will say it is so weird to see people praising BTRFS in internet comments while not acknowledging that the RAID5/6 stuff is still incomplete a decade later and I see people in my own social circles complaining regularly about corruption and other issues
I'm still waiting to meet someone whose zpool was irrevocably lost because of a ZFS software bug, not hardware issues and poor storage design decisions
