Potentialy dumb question here, is there any benefit to using btrfs on a non system disk? I’m fairly ignorant on file systems, asfaik btrfs largest benefit is snapshotting, not sure of anyothers.

I thought RHEL is going with ext4 or btrfs these days. I know Fedora is on btrfs, while Debian & Ubuntu is on ext4.
RHEL is going hard on XFS, they’ve even completely removed BTRFS support from their kernel - they don’t have any in-house development competency in it after all. It’s somewhat understandable in that regard, since otherwise they wouldn’t necessarily be able to offer filesystem-level support to their paying customers.
Though it is a little bit amusing, seeing as Fedora - the RHEL upstream - uses BTRFS as their default filesystem.
Is Red Hat the next canonical?
