I have used both but in the long run I'd say you probably will have less problems using ext4
Also, when/if you buy a future Sailfish device, it's kernel won't have btrfs enabled by default*, so you won't be able to just put your card in the next device and expect to transfer settings and continue using the data on it.


As for formatting your sd card, open the Settings app, go to Storage > Memory card, and I think there should be a format option in the pulley menu.

*At least in the Jolla C, they've gone over to using ext4.
