I use XFS on partitions where I need to implement project quotas.

Why not zfs?

I have no experience with ZFS and didn't know it supported project quotas too. I found out about XFS from an LPIC book where it said that XFS, unlike other filesystems, also supported project quotas (this was about 10 years ago). It's been working fine for me the past few years, so I've never looked for alternatives. Now I'm curious.

Fairly sure zfs has been able to do dataset quotas for about 20 years, totally worth looking into

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
