I've used it for the past 4 years as my primary development machine. Never once had an issue. However, I used Arch Linux, which always has newer kernels. I know there have been some bugs on other distros which run older kernels.

I ran it for quite a while, 4 terabytes lost specifically due to btrfs, I will never trust it again.

I've heard several admins flat out scoff at the idea of using it.

Make sure you have backups with a reliable fs.
