From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Do you happen know if bchachefs's raid5/6 implementation is working/stable?
I don't believe it's been marked stable yet but it doesn't suffer from the raid write hole like BTRFS and claims to be more performant than ZFS's implementation.
With it being merged into the kernel it should get much wider use and hopefully that helps it reach stability.
Thank you for the detailed reply!🤗
if so, then that's pretty awesome🎉
