I am also a Patreon supporter, and I intentionally didn't switch to bcachefs until it was merged into the kernel. After all, Linus would never break userspace right?
I am also frustrated by this whole debacle, I'm not going to stop funding him though Bcachefs is a solid alternative to btrfs. It's not at all clear to me what really happened to make all the drama. A PR was made that contained something that was more feature-like than bugfix-like, and that resulted in a whole module being ejected from the kernel?
I really wish, though that DKMS was not such a terrible a solution. It _will_ break my boot, because it always breaks my boot. The Linux kernel really needs a stable module API so that out-of-tree modules like bcachefs are not impossible to reliably boot with.
