> Where is Windows' equivalent of APFS / BTRFS (or even EXT4)..? NTFS is more than 20 years old by now.

There's ReFS, but a lot of NTFS features are basically baked into the filesystem API, so replacing it is hard.

That being said, NTFS works extremely well and reliable. I don't really see a compelling need to replace it (which is always a messy transition unless you're completely backwards-compatible -- but in that case, NTFS has evolved a lot already).

Our culture is to replace working things purely because they're old. Solved problem? Never heard of her.

APFS and BTRFS are objectively better than NTFS. Hell, even HFS+ and EXT4 already were.

And then there is already the next generation knocking on the door. BcacheFS is really cool and yet another step forward in performance and reliability.

Nothing stopping you from enjoying Slackware 11 on EXT2 though :)
