@MagicLike @kura in 1990s it was new technology since the other option was fat16/fat32, so like, you know

@jeder @kura yeah, but what good other option do I have to format a 5TB drive to use with both Windows and Linux?

@MagicLike @jeder there are 2 or 3 ext2+ drivers, but you cant install windows on them

and you more often then not they are "experimental", or read only.

if you want a data exchange (or shared) partition, ntfs in linux is way more mature then ext on windows. or use fat, though that one doesnt support posix attributes (unlike ntfs actually).

and if you are really adventurous, i think linux can actually boot from ntfs, unless they removed ntfs kernel support.

@kura @jeder I guess then I will keep my current approach: All drives NTFS, except my Linux boot drive...
