I’ve been using extensively Syncthing on machines with ext4 and ZFS; now I would like to try it on a Btrfs disk: are there any pitfalls or drawbacks that I should be aware of?
Thank you for your help, Francesco

I’ve been using it for a while without issues related to BTRFS raid1
I’m using ZSTD compression, LUKS encryption, etc. No issues related to that

Also from my side no problems with BTRFS.
