> NTFS was only supported well on Windows until recently
I remember using ntfs-3g without any issues on my first Linux laptop 15 years ago. So that's not really "recently".

I intentionally excluded unofficial or third party software, as almost anything is supported if you’re brave enough. The quality of said drivers also wildly varies.
Until 4 years ago, nothing was good enough for the upstream Linux kernel.
I mean, yeah, you could say that. Something being in the kernel is a good benchmark of quality. But IMO open-source is different. For instance, Terraform had no stable release from 2014 till 2021, that didn't stop enterprises from using it on scale.
