As a full time desktop Linux user since 1999 (the actual year of the Linux desktop, I swear) I wish all you Windows folks the best of luck on the next clean install 👍

…and Happy 30th Birthday “New Technology” File System!

    Microsoft really really hated open source some time ago. Now they seem to have embraced it, however some still think that might be an attempt to EEE.

    Still, I suppose Microsoft doesn’t think replacing the Windows default filesystem is a sound investment at this point even if the political resistance to such a change is, supposedly, gone.

      Also NTFS is constantly evolving and it’s not the same as 30 years ago.

      Microsoft has a replacement called reFS but I don’t know what happened to it

        It’s sorta kinda usable but not really? Its main purpose seems to be causing permanent data corruption in ISCSI storage for Veeam backup appliances.
