This four-year-long effort by Namjae Jeon has resulted in full write support, better stability compared to NTFS3 with passing more XFStests, new user-space utilities for FSCK and more, and making use of modern Linux kernel features like IOmap and folio integration. The newer kernel tech integration is better off than the current NTFS3 driver.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
