How is slate-ntfs different from NTFS-3g and the NTFS 3.1 kernel implementation?
-First of all, slate has a fuller VFS implementation, allowing Steam to see drivers natively. This means that Steam can see drivers directly, without direct intervention.
-User API: comes with an API to easily get driver manufacturer. Has Python, C and Rust support.
-Rust driver, C adapter: can be used with kernels as old as 5.15 while preserving memory safety.
-This code also runs on ARM64 (not fully tested)!


I still do some sneakernet file sharing with a Windows user where BitLocker support would be nice (we currently use VeraCrypt).
My bitlocker constantly needs fixing when I had ntfs still. Only just recently replaced with rhel in that partition for doing a rhcsa
You’re right, it’s probably a lost cause.
