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!

      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 It’s just outdated.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.

    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
