Remember: GNU/Linux and other UNIX systems can make files that are case-sensitive, Windows can't make files that are case-sensitive - eviltoast

    I honestly don’t get why everyone is agreeing with Windows on this one. I just love how explicit Linux is.

    file.txt is fucking file.txt. Don’t do any type extra magic. Do exactly as I’m saying. If I say “open file.txt”, it is “open file.txt”, not “open File.txt”.

    The feature isn’t being able to create filenames with the same name, nobody does that. The feature is how explicit it is.

    It would be so confusing to read some code trying to access FILE.TXT and then find the filesystem has file.txt
