I have looked at some stratis commands and it seems like it's only a wrapper for lvm and some fs commands. Am I wrong?
    Does anyone here use it?
    What do you think of it?
    Any real advantages?
    Disadvantages?

This poll is not HMES compliant.

its basically XFS with userland tools/daemons to provide "next gen" filesystem capability. RH initially backed btrfs but that kept turning into a clusterfk. ZFS has licensing concerns and bcachefs is still wip.

Ok. Not worth of trying then, I guess.
I guess I'll continue with "manual lvm2".

And what's "HMES"?

I think running a daemon (including lvm-metad and straits) for storage management is uneccessary.

I created a python library that allows me to choose and manage one of seven hard disk layouts for each of my linux systems.
This solution provides me with enough flexibility, safety and convenience.
