FAT/exFAT have good support across the three OS's, but they are very far from being "modern" filesystems. One of the most fundamental cons for me is the lack of journaling on these filesystems; it's very easy to corrupt a drive formatted as exFAT, especially if it's a portable device (which is probably one of the most important uses of a cross-platform filesystem)
