Khaled: Another one

Please fucking explain why this is a problem. I have a folder with movies on an external HDD. I want to move them to a different subfolder. The first twenty worked fine without any issues - as expected. Then I get this error, and it doesn’t tell me why in a human language that can be understood by humans.

So, I’ll go ahead and ask here. Do any of you have any idea wtf this is? I’m on Fedora 38.

EDIT: Wait, it has actually moved some of the folders and files that it tells me it can’t move. So now it’s basically copied the files…??

EDIT 2: Not to be a dick, but I think I’ll boot into Win 11 and see if it handles it any better. BRB!

EDIT: 3: LOL, Windows moved the shit without any questions. Now you know what I meant with the TITLE.

EDIT 4: And as expected, the community did not like that their God OS failed at such a simple task. As a Linux (Debian) user for 16 years, and a current Fedora user, this is proper cringe - but also expected.

EDIT 5: I’m so sorry for the actual adults around here who try to help, but it looks like Reddit has indeed arrived.

EDIT 6: Lemmy in a nutshell? Actually a bigger echo chamber than Reddit? How ironic.

EDIT 7: This is my blog now

EDIT 8: So I had a sandwich, it was pretty good, but need more salt

EDIT 9: Pretty sure I just invented a new type of Twitter

EDIT 10: Got a cease and desist from Musk, he must feel threatened by all the hate in here. He offered to buy it.

EDIT 11: The Net (1995) A computer programmer stumbles upon a conspiracy, putting her life and the lives of those around her in great danger.

EDIT 12: Whoever owns “Edit.com”, reach out to me. I think I’ve got something

EDIT 13: “Most Hated Person on C/Linux Right Now AMA”

EDIT 14: This thread is now sponsored by Nestlé.

EDIT 15: Angy! ME SO ANGY!

EDIT 16: I use Arch, btw

    One way to see it is that if you tried to use a Linux filesystem on Windows, it would entirely refuse to read it. At least Linux can handle Window’s filesystems to a reasonable degree.

      Nemo on Windows can read extfs partitions better than NTFS plays with Linux. It’s more of a problem with proprietary file systems, not the open source file manager trying it’s best to reverse engineer the protocol.

      When I dual booted, I would just share the extfs partition because it worked the best on both systems, once the extfs driver for Windows was installed.
