This article is part of a series of articles that takes a closer look at Btrfs. This is the default filesystem for Fedora Workstation and Fedora Silverblue since Fedora Linux 33.
Filesystems are one of the foundations of modern computers. They are an essential part of every operating system and they usually work unnoticed.
