Other file systems are supported since Win10.

If they’re incorporating open libraries, Hopefully support for real filesystems will be next

tell that to my btrfs formated USB sticks or when I try to access an ext4 partition from a windows machine

not really scalable when you want to just stick the usb stick in a family member’s PC. They dont want you fucking around with WSL, or they probably run home edition which has no hyper-v for WSL

Humm, I doubt it as NTFS has ACLs built in to FS directly, so far I don’t know if Linux FS has that feature, I know that ACLs exists in the Linux file world, but I don’t know if they are built in durectly in the FS.

How would it be any different to the various FAT filesystems it supports now?

That is fair, I confused support with making windows run on them rather than being able to just read and write to them.
That is my mistake.

proof of concept installing windows on btrfs. It just requires an alternative bootloader

Pretty much all Linux FS support ACLs and have for an eternity.
The thing is that nobody uses ACLs because the good ole user/group/world rwx scheme is much less of a hassle to work with in 99.9% of the cases and the remaining 0.01% can still be done.

User/group/world scheme is useless in most cases.
