Remember: GNU/Linux and other UNIX systems can make files that are case-sensitive, Windows can't make files that are case-sensitive (lemmy.world)

Oh it's even better, windows explorer can't really do case sensitive

But NTFS is a case sensitive file system

This occasionally manifests in mind boggling problems

You can enable case sensitivity in windows. It's only disabled by default.

Same on MacOS - when you format a drive, you can pick whether it's case sensitive or not.
