I haven’t used ext4 for a couple of years. Does it really have any advantages over xfs and btrfs?
It is the fastest, nothing more
No transparent compression is important too, you will need more storage than when using BTRFS with zstd compression
Also no deduplication, so again more storage
For root drives (where recovery may be required) and database drives it still serves a purpose, IMHO.
After 10 years, Ext4 is still the best FS.
