Comment on A minimum complete tutorial of Linux ext4 file system (2017)

Comments

It's absolutely fantastic, how gracefully ext2/3/4 stood the test of time, for something designed in early 90s by people who hadn't had 30+ years of kernel hacking in their pockets (yet). While I generally prefer ZFS, ext4 remains a rock solid choice - I rarely have a reason to pick anything else (on Linux, at least).
