feld (nprofile…xyvy) On a similar note, it still sort of holds to this day.

ZFS originally made by Sun and later released under a non-GPL compatible license is still used a lot for archival storage. Its GPL replacement originally made by an Oracle employee is mostly in maintenance mode after Oracle mostly abandoned the project. SUSE still maintains it and uses it as the default filesystem in SLES, but it's still half-developed after years with many pitfalls.

XFS - originally made by SGI, now developed by Red Hat

ext* - possibly the only GPL filesystem that is used a lot outside of specialized needs (inspired by the MINIX filesystem and UFS)

JFFS2 - updated version of a filesystem made by Axis communications

F2FS - developed by Motorola, Samsung, Huawei, Google

All of the examples except one, or maybe two, wouldn't exist without a company developing it for their own commercial needs first.

LVM is the same. If it weren't for Red Hat's use of it everywhere, it definitely wouldn't be as usable as it is today.
