Is this already known to everybody but me? Lol
I assume this is a good thing but wonder if they're are risks for stability?

Turns out it's been around since 2012 and in use by five smartphone manufacturers including Motorola, Google, Huawei, OnePlus and ZTE. This may be Samsungs first use of it though.

Wow didn't know it was being used this widely
I'm on OP7 Pro now and pretty sure it's not

7 Pro uses Ext4 by default, but F2FS support is present in source.

That's what I thought
I'm pretty sure that very few if any use F2FS by default,,, they just support it
So I'm still surprised that the Note 10 will use by default

The N10 uses F2FS on the data partition, which might be a 1st for the company (not sure what Galaxy Fold has).

When we have TWRP and have to format data there I wonder if it will be able to format to F2FS properly.
