Linux Filesystem of the Year
 

A new category last year that ended up with fairly lopsided results. Based on feedback it may be rotated out next year.

Went with btrfs here, even though I also use Ext4, I made great experience with btrfs and it supports Snapper backups, which is another plus for me, being on openSUSE.

My needs are simple. Voted ext3. But on my non trim supported ssd atom netbook.

I roll with ext2 with no /swap partition.

Voted ext4, but going to try btrfs one of these days.

Everything uses ext4 on my systems. :)

why no ext2? it's all i use

You should. I am aware of the fact, that it had received some bad reviews in the past, but I had absolutely no problems with it. Basically I decided to give it ago, since I use openSUSE, which comes with Snapper for backups and Snapper requires Btrfs. I have however my /home formatted in Ext4, since I don't need it snapshot.

Not noticing any performance increase, but Btrfs appears pretty robust and performing well for like one year now.

btrfs, because of transparent compression

I voted XFS because at work have several NAS over 16 TB
ZFS i great too but RAIDZ is not growable as easy as growing RAID with mdadm tools.

Missing ReiserFS in the list :-( Its still working fine here...

Reiser4 is the most recent release and has been included in the category from the beginning.

ReiserFS (which is Reiser3) is quite a bit different than Reiser4 isn't it?

ext4. Would like to try XFS on my ssds, can't get it to boot through. Probably just me I'm guessing.

ext4 for me...maybe I need to try a different one sometime!

Formated my HDD with LUKS encrypted Btrfs. Used it for months, since I had not the time to change it, but I never had such a slow system in my life before.

Came back to ext4, which in my search is actually the fastest filesystem nowadays, and became a happy Linux user again!

ext4 and for me all the time...

Voted for ext4 as it's served me well, but ReiserFS has a spot in my heart from my Slack days.

BtrFS, create/delete subvols on a live system, Snapshots that don't take up any or little space ...Bootable Snapshots ? Combined with mirroring or striped mirrors and a NAS Backup plan, When (If ?) it ever becomes stable it will be Priceless.

still ext4 all the way, and will be for the foreseeable future

ext3 because I hate waiting 15 minutes after the file manager finishes transferring files to my usb drive on ext4...but the drive is still active after the file manager claims it's done transferring files.

ext4 here as well. It does its job well enough for my needs.
