Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any questions and answers about why bcachefs isn't in the kernel? It was but now it isn't. There was some hemming and hawwing about "testing"?

I'm here to talk filesystems and technical topics, not to take part in or stir up drama. There's been more than enough of that.

Also the matter has been discussed here in detail when it broke the news a couple months ago so yeah focusing more on the technical merit is much more interesting IMO
