       #askfedi #linux What's your preferred method of auto-mounting external drives on Linux? Like an USB external drive with an NTFS partition?

       @nicemicro A USB daemon, namely udisks2. To make your life easier, use udiskie in conjunction with it.

       @nicemicro I avoid mounting USB drives as much as possible :)

       @nicemicro none, I do it manually, as root, since I don't need it often. setting up an automounter would just add another level of complexity for no big gain

       @nicemicro And obviously you need an NTFS file-system driver. On Arch it's called ntfs-3g
