Im curious will Manjaro make BTRFS a default file system?

I am using Btrfs for a few weeks, no issues at all. It is not so hard. Also some distros made it as default also

There are no plans for making it the default filesystem, but there are plans on making it more easily accessible. Here is (my) current road map: Add services to automate btrfs maintenance (done) automatically enable those services in calamares Fix swapfile handling for btrfs in calamares (pull…

I am really looking forward to your work and I am really glad that i am a part of this community .
