It’s not ready yet. It’s good for some specific use cases but it’s not anything the typical end user needs.

Yet?? They’ve been making it since the Stone Age. I read about it in my teens

Right? I’ve gone through ReiserFS, ext3, ext4, XFS, ZFS; hell on macOS I’ve been through HFS+ and AFS. And clunky ol’ Microsoft is still on fucking NTFS.

Apple’s APFS I am not a fan of. I have been using Macs since 2008-ish. In all my HFS+ days, I’ve never lost an entire drive. I rebooted my M2 Mac Mini via command prompt, and my external APFS drive is corrupted. Never had that problem before APFS. And since I’m an idiot, I’ve got to pay DiskDrill to hopefully recover the data when I get a larger drive on hand.
