@absturztaube If by love you mean that Microsoft has been forced to accept the reality that free/open source software is not only going away but that they have to submit to it to a degree now. It's definitely not the 90's anymore.

@absturztaube > Implements ExFAT on Linux> Doesn't adopt EXT on Windows instead as an standardIf storage devices for consumers came with EXT4 with default, things would be much better.

@proxeus @absturztaube microsoft coders are too incompetent and cannot write non-microsoft code, so them writing EXT support for windows is simply impossible.

@proxeus @absturztaube ext4 really isn't great for flash storage. F2FS could be good. But really, exFAT for flash is infinitely better than ext4 for flash.

@AngryInternetMan @absturztaube Because writing cycles? Otherwise I do not understand why it isn't.Much better than ExFAT for sure. And it will work well with my external hard disks too.

@proxeus @absturztaube for once, exFAT was designed specifically with flash drives in mind, whereas ext4 is basically a continuation of ext3 which is mainly aimed at being a generic standard filesystem for Linux distributions. ext4 uses journalling by default whereas exFAT does not, thereby decreasing unnecessary writes which wear the NANDs off over time.No. It is certainly not better regardless of being good enough for you.

@AngryInternetMan @absturztaube Also just so you know ExFAT is just a continuation of FAT32... I mean, if that's OK with you...

@proxeus @absturztaube it CAN be disabled. But have you disabled it on flash drives?Besides, it doesn't matter how configurable it is if the default settings are flawed.

@AngryInternetMan @absturztaube I can. You can modify your fstab for it. Besides, that's just by specification. It can be disabled by implementation. I really don't see the problem with it.

@proxeus @absturztaube I didn't ask if you could. I asked if you DID.I know it is technically possible, and it is irrelevant whether or not it is technically possible.Many things are technically possible, but if the default settings are flawed, they are technically inferior.
