Just a simple question : Which file system do you recommend for Linux? Ext4…?

EDIT : Thanks to everyone who commented, I think I will try btrfs on my root partition and keep ext4 for my home directory 😃

    Like, all of them… or would you be a bit more specific?

    Old CPUs are an okay use case, but targeting will literally remove all benefits in efficiency that were made in the last 14 or so years.

    My Thinkpad T430 has v3, and it is a 3rd gen intel. People honestly running hardware older than that are rare.

    For sure the hardware should be supported, but it is not the target audience and pulls the others down.

      So what solution do you recommend? Only making v3 packages and leaving older hardware support for AUR geeks?
