Cwilliams,

Not sure about the other ones, but I use Btrfs because of subvolumes and backups.

Subvolumes are like special folders inside of your partition that mount separately. Ex. In my btrfs partition, I have a @home partition that is mounted to /home

This makes it easier to choose what you are backing up, because you can say, “just copy everything in @home to the backup location”

If I got any of that wrong, feel free to correct me!
