Still hacking away at learning Linux file systems. Question: What filesystem types would I run into, or which should I master first?
ext4 is a given. What is common in the SMB realm?
Oh, and don't forget to take a look at SquashFS, UnionFS, aufs, OverlayFS and things like that. That's where the fun begins. Special purpose "file systems".

ext4 is what you find in the SMB 98% of the time. XFS is what we recommend most of the time.

Do you stick with the default file system when installing Ubuntu or do you switch it to XFS?

Fedora ISO installers is completely random with its default file system.
Fedora-Everything-netinst defaults to ext4
Fedora-Server-netinst = uses a combination of ext4 and xfs -

And it conflicts with what they (and everyone in the industry) was teaching the year before, and in the years since. This must be some kruft from that terrible Win2K release. What a mess.

Why XFS over EXT4 ? Honestly curious.

Reliability, performance. EXT4 has some essentially pointless features that make it popular with the non-production set like the ability to shrink an on the fly partition. Not something you use in prod or a server, not something I've ever used, but in theory, a niche need in a lab or consumer system. But giving up performance or stability for that? Crazy (outside of lab or consumer.)
EXT4 is very good for a desktop, and has a slight edge in the small file transactions common there. XFS has a performance edge with nearly all workloads. Nothing is the best always.
