What's interesting to me is that there doesn't seem to be a modern filesystem that works across all major platforms. btrfs has Linux and this (unofficial) Windows driver; ZFS has Linux and OS X support but nothing for Windows. NTFS is pretty much Windows and Linux only for good write access, and APFS is macOS-only.

I realize that designing a filesystem and writing drivers for it are very difficult tasks, but surely it would be extremely beneficial to have at least 1 open source filesystem that has good support across all platforms?
