Yup, I have a few folders of classical music on an old hard drive that I can’t delete in Windows because the name is too long. I just haven’t bothered connecting them to Linux yet.
I once naively used Windows file copy utility to transfer my huge MP3 library to an external hard drive and later lost the originals. I came to find out it silently failed to copy any songs containing certain nonalphanumeric characters. To this day I’m still traumatized when I try to locate some song and find it’s not there. Burn in hell Windows.
