They entirely missed talking about the difference in filesystems. If I want ZFS like features on Windows you have to run enterprise or the workstation versions of Windows. FAIL. And with Linux, the drivers for just about everything and anything are “in the box”.
The biggest put down of Linux is “hardware support”. It is a misconception and myth. Maybe a long time ago but it is now pretty rare. Not even Windows will support all hardware out of the box. Just like ALL operating systems, you occasionally still have to go and download drivers from the hardware manufacturers. And now days very few do not have Linux drivers for their hardware. Only those who are sentimental about 30 year old obsolete hardware might have trouble finding Linux drivers. Let it go, just get a new printer... It is only a matter of time before it dies anyhow. They all do...
I apologize... I misunderstood what you were sharing with this. I get it and agree, The file system is ready for anything you throw at it. :)
