Trying to explain how there was a time when we couldn’t really easily migrate files between OSes…
It's still an unpleasant experience today carried via FAT32 or exFAT and the limitations that come with those filesystems.
Obviously much better than the old days you're describing but I wanted to move some files from a Mac to an NTFS drive and it was incredibly frustrating because macOS won't write to NTFS
