@lancalot @possiblylinux127 eh, also Garuda defaults to BTRFS, EOS does not default to BTRFS, but it has an option on their Calamares
I wanted to stick to (what I'd refer to as) OG distros; so independent distros that have kept their relevance over a long period of time.
But you're correct, Garuda Linux and others default to Btrfs as well. At this point, I'd argue it's the most sensible option if snapshot functionality is desired from Snapper/Timeshift.
@lancalot none of the "main" distros default to BTRFS, just "derivatives" default to BTRFS, Garuda is based on Arch, so it's normal that it's one of the rising new distros, Garuda rose because gaming on Linux received a huge boost from sources like Valve so I doubt that it (Garuda) will deviate from its path with time, plus, they provide multiple flavors for multiple purposes, gaming requires stability & sometimes a rollback mechanism, that's where BTRFS shine, not so much stability BTW
So you don't regard Fedora (or openSUSE) as "main" distro?
