I think the problem with btrfs is that it entered the spotlight way to early. With Wayland there was time to work on a lot of the kinks before everyone started seriously switching.

On btrfs a bunch of people switched blindly and then lost data. This caused many to have a bad impression of btrfs. These days it is significantly better but because there was so much fear there is less attention paid to it and it is less widely used.

    @hummus273 I have a 1gbit network connection at the co-lo, and 180mb/s cable and I don’t have any lag using X tunneled through ssh.

      Not having any lag is physically impossible. You don’t notice it maybe. But if I open Firefox with X forwarding on the same network (1gbe) it is very noticeable for me.

        @hummus273 Perhaps not because I’m not trying to game, and I can’t detect any changes faster than about 1/50th of a second anyway so fps faster than 50 is more or less moot for me.
