• What a click bait title. Article goes on to explain the rational reasons why ReFS wasn’t built for mainstream use and doing so might bloat its performance on the very server systems it was designed to be efficient for.

  • I wish Microsoft adopted and upstreamed changes to OpenZFS instead of duplicating all this effort.

    Though then I’m sure they would tell the community to fuck off by trying to take over the entire project and pushing the actually open and compatible version out of favour.

    • Problem is Microsoft has zero interest in zfs. Not even as far as answering questions the openzfs windows dev asks them.

        • NTFS? It’s a standard for a reason. Most of the “better” options out there aren’t ready for mainstream/average user use.

          • I need the better options. I need to be able to detect corruption. ZFS and btrfs let me do that. It’s part of the reason why I couldn’t use Windows even if I wanted to.

      • eh, I was thinking like Google and that open chat protocol.

        Though I do dislike some of systemd’s architecture decisions as well. Like why tha fuck can I not turn off it’s own built in authentication to sudo mechanism -_-

        • I agree but just don’t otherwise understand why Microsoft is so obsessed with extending system in the manner they currently are

  • May I be the first one here to say… Fuck Microslop

    I remember being excited for this in 2011, it’s about 15 years too late.

    It’s not ready yet. It’s good for some specific use cases but it’s not anything the typical end user needs.

    • This. NTFS is still the gold standard for stability. ReFS is meant for data ops, and while it’s fairly stable, and offers a lot of advantages, it’s not perfect and can suffer greatly if used incorrectly. Until the quirks are gone, users are probably better off with NTFS for a lot of reasons.

      Yet?? They’ve been making it since the Stone Age. I read about it in my teens

    Hi, I’m an AI engineer based in Japan, and I’m expanding into the U.S. market to work with more long-term clients. I’m looking for an American or European collaborator who can act as a communication bridge between me and U.S. clients.

    I will handle the technical side myself, including project planning, AI development, and software implementation. Your role would be to join meetings, help with smooth communication, and support the client relationship side.

    If this sounds like a good fit, please send me a message.
