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 😃

What’s lvm like compared to btrfs?
Well lvm makes a shit filesystem and btrfs is useless at volume management.
LVM creates “block devices” and is FS agnostic. You can install btrfs on an LVM volume if you wanted. Or any other FS for that matter.
But since it doesn’t know anything about the FS it can be a bit more cumbersome to modify volumes (especially when shrinking).
