As a full time desktop Linux user since 1999 (the actual year of the Linux desktop) I wish all you Windows folks the best of luck on the next clean install 👍
…and Happy 30th Birthday “New Technology” File System!
Why are Linux nerds so insecure? Lol
?
Making an account to say this seems like the insecure thing. Lol
Also plenty of Windows users criticize NTFS. It’s just outdated. Windows needs a new option.
Honest question: what are the limitations? Most articles online compare it with FAT, which isn’t really an interesting comparison.
That was oddly hostile.
Nobody tell him
tell me again… how old is ext2 now?
age of the initial version might not be the best metric
Thanks for the well wishes! I hope they won’t get corrupted on your new, fresh and untested-by-time file system. Go on, save this post. I’ll wait…
i’m confused… are you talking about ext4, xfs, zfs…? because these are the filesystems linux people talk about and these are also the filesystems that run the worlds databases and data storage systems
I realize my comment sounds like throwing shade onto the great file systems in the linux space.
I just wanted to point out, that when it comes to file systems you probably want the “old and stuffy” one because it has ben tested by time and you won’t lose your data.
so… fat>ntfs?
that’s not how this works
