@barnibu @keirFox Is zfs any better? That's one of those filesystems that goes "shrinking is for non-Big-Data™ losers", right? or something?

@barnibu @keirFox there's also the whole "ZFS eats your RAM" thing but yeah, btrfs does seem to be easy to break we've broken it multiple times and unbreaking it was generally _possible_ but took some work (and in at least one case, hacky stuff that could easily go wrong and destroy the filesystem if you make a typo)
