  • I tried Paragon's ntfs3 and it didn't go well

    That's not exactly true. From my understanding, what happened is that the maintainer for this project went on vacation in April 2022, and didn't reply to messages from the kernel team. [0]

    But we can indeed see plenty of work being done by devs. [1]

    So, I don't know what to think, I haven't kept with more specific stuff, but is the work done not being merged since? I couldn't tell without serious grepping.
