This has been in the back of my mind lately as I think about bouncing between OSes. Typically various Linux distros seem to be able to recognize just about any filesystem, but the same definitely can't be said of Windows, and I suspect MacOS as well.

I'm mainly thinking about whatever would allow you to plug a drive into a computer or smartphone (more of an edge case here tbh, but it'd be a nice bonus) and it be recognized without issue.

The longer answer is setting up a network attached storage the mounting the drives over the smb protocol.

That way you can use any file system you want.

The more I thought about it, something like this did come to mind, but I wasn't sure how it might work. Think you gave me some key words to look into to help pin it down, so thanks!
