       @PublicNuisance @boilingsteam It works mostly okay as long as you don't stress it and there are no hardware hickups, but it really has too many structural problems and nobody has worked on them for years.

       @PublicNuisance @boilingsteam There have been some fixes, but too many issues have been marked as "mostly OK" or "Unstable" for many years:https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/StatusTo my knowledge the last attempt at merging a preliminary RAID56 write hole patch was in 2017. In the 5.x kernel series only a single entry in the list has been adressed so far.
