SMB1 has major security issues but even those ignored (which a lot of people on private home networks shouldn't be too worried about) it's also slow as hell on MacOS

> people on private home networks shouldn't be too worried about

philosophically I would beg to differ about any premise assuming we can trust the castle and moat model. Even on home networks.

  • philosophically, it depends on who you are. If you're Sam Altman or Vitalik Buterin, yeah, your private home network should be considered to be under attack by hostiles trying to steal from you, but for the rest of us, the NSA isn't going to make an international incident trying to get at your Plex server.

    • For the rest of us we have IoT devices and guests malware filled devices constantly probing the internal network.
