How to mount an NTFS Partiotion in Bliss OS 15.8
I have also found this repository (https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g) which seems to be a fork of the NTFS-3G repository from Tuxera (https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g) but it doesn't provide any instructions on how to install NTFS-3G on Bliss OS without compiling it yourself from what I understand.

How come Zorin can successfully access Windows 10 OneDrive's Desktop, Documents and Pictures?
Can you access any folders on your Windows drive? If not, you could maybe try reinstalling ntfs-3g. I believe this is responsible reading from/writing to nfts partitions. It should be installed on most modern distros, but maybe it's not installed on yours.

Real world issue of linux?
So if you like ntfs transparent file compression, ensure you have ntfs-3g installed. Make an ntfs partition with folders, set the compression flag on the folder of your choice per these notes https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g/wiki/Using-Transparently-Compressed-Files write your logs you wanted to compress to it and it is a compressed folder.

Is there any free version of this app" linux file systems for windows by paragon" available? They saying I need to pay $20 just so I can transfer my files from a Linux based file system to Windows which is actually absurd.
For more info, here is their wiki https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g/wiki

External Hard Drive suddenly Windows Formatted?
You should typically have no issue reading from the NTFS disk with a Mac but writing to is a separate matter. The driver you were using may not be compatible with Ventura. Here are a couple paid options: Paragon NTFS, along with NTFS for Mac. There are also a couple open-source options with limited support but should be otherwise functional: NTFS-3G or macFUSE.

30 questions from a one week Linux user
You need ntfs-3g to read/write a NTFS drive. It shouldn't corrupt your data no matter what but may create some Linux-only files which may prevent the Windows machine from booting up. Idk how Windows 7 handle this. Windows 10 should ignore them though.

Creating a distro hopping partition that can be seen by macos and windows
If it's on their repositories, that would be easy. If not, you could compile from source.

Failing to automount external drive
Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g/wiki/NTFS-3G-FAQ

If it's got the Logitech unifying receiver, it won't work outta the box. You gotta download Solaar

Mouse gesture overview extension?
Depending on your mouse, Solaar could do the job. I use it in combination to trigger Fly-Pie.

Logitech M720 Triathlon - What do you think of it?
Now moving on to the Linux part. Do you use gnome/kde? Or some tiling DE? I use Solaar and it's lovely! M720 has a perfectly placed gestures button. I use it to move my windows to left/right monitors and switch between upper/lower desktop spaces. The gesture button works flawlessly when you set up solaar correctly.

Runit script for Solaar
I've been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out why this isn't working as I expect. I'm trying to make a user service to run solaar so that my logitech mouse's scroll wheel behaves like I want without having to open the app manually. The software itself provides a .desktop file for autostart, and I used this as a basis.

Silly problem but what are you guys doing for keyboard/mouse setup?
We don't officially support wireless keyboards or mice for infosec, environmental, and supportability reasons. But if we had to, the established Logitech Unifying and newer Logitech Bolt ecosystem allow for ready re-pairing of dongles with peripherals. Logitech Unifying is fully functional under Linux with solaar from your distro's repos. You have to be astute when buying, to always look for a picture of the dongle with the orange Unifying logo or the safety-yellow Bolt logo, however. If the logo isn't on the packaging or in the promo picture, I can assure you that you will not get a Unifying or Bolt dongle.
