What's your fav FS and why?

Hello me lovely drones.

My last question regarding what kernel version to use was so enlightening (I 
thank everyone who replied), so educational that I've decided to ask another 
question.

I'm currently using JFS. It's fast, reliable and easy to repair. On the rare 
occasion (once in 20 years) were I wasn't able to fix the fs (after a hard 
drive death rattle), I was able to mount it as a RO fs and recover the data 
with a simple copy and paste (later rsync and luckbackup). 

However jfs has it's limits for example it can't be resized, something I 
needed to a do a few times. Which meant backing up the drive, reformatting 
and restoring said backups.

So...

July's question... What's your fav FS and why?

I thank everyone in advance and look forward to assimilating your brainz (ooh 
a SciFi / Zombie mix there).
