I was wondering if anyone here has attempted the new "COW filesystem for Linux that won't eat your data".

It's supposedly has been stable since the start of 2023. I'm willing to give it a try on Arch, but before I do, I'd like to hear if anyone has faced any issues with it.

It's still missing the send and receive features from btrfs. And while they say it's more stable than btrfs, it's yet to prove itself (through widespread use), and is marked as experimental in the kernel config.
