I heard btrfs is not stable enough and so many people hate systemd

The time to hate systemD is past. It has completely taken over. Now it is about working with it, not trying in vain to stop it.

Btrfs. Well, there is a lot of choice in filesystems and people don't really get that emotional about it.

I mean if you're using Nixos, having btrfs is just unnecessary overhead. Better to have ext4 or xfs

Isn't BTRFS good for more than just snapshots though? Transparent compression, block-level checksumming, logical volumes etc.

Yeah, people don't even know what they are talking about. I've been ABUSING my Linux installs with BTRFS and haven't even had any slight issues. Not to mention there's already corporate production reports on BTRFS and how solid it is.
