PSA: udisks2 issues
For anyone who's experiencing slow performance after a recent update or issues with udisks or other applications using udisks: There seems to be some kind of cluster of problems with udisks 2.10.1: https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/issues
- UDisks 2.10 Released With Native NVMe Support, LVM2 RAID

So I switched to Arch for a month...
Let's say many (fundamental) tools didn't natively hooked it up until very recently.

Cannot access external drive on KDE
See https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/issues/1039

MicroOS Desktop KDE
According to https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/blob/da8a7d0dfd586d1b50c87f2345f856cffa57d9fe/data/builtin_mount_options.conf , 'exec' is an allowed safe mount option. So I can't figure out immediately why it's being rejected either.

I want to share the storage between my linux and Windows system
I'm not sure what you mean by "didn't work out of the box", but if you're not specifying the ntfs3 driver in your fstab, then udisks2 will default to the user-space driver, ntfs-3g. This is already fixed, but will only be available in a future release of udisks2.

Having trouble with spin down - How can i see what's being accessed?
I've had success with fatrace https://github.com/martinpitt/fatrace

Need help to spindown HDD
You can use fatrace from the package of the same name to trace file accesses by process, although it does have some issues with some btrfs subvolume layouts. My preferred way to use it is to cd to the root mount point of the drive, and then fatrace -ct.
-
Is it necessary to supply whole-filesystem mount options for every subvolume in fstab?
But really it sounds like nested would simplify fstab, and AFAICT the only thing I want subvolumes for is excluding logs and VM images from snapshots. I have already had to work around one problem related to the flat layout, and I haven't actually used Timeshift...
