Server 2022, but was previously server 2016 and doing the same things.
Only time there are issues is when someone has used an app to extract files with extremely long folder names and even that hasn’t happened in years.
Ntfs hasn’t changed a whole lot recently so I doubt there’s much difference between server 2022 and win11.
you know I got some torrent files that start to exceed the limit on filenames. I wonder if those are doing something similar. I just assumed newer versions of windows are just running shittier script shells on top of old Windows 7 architecture, but maybe that's worth looking into
but I would guess there are some wide differences between Server 2022 and a consumer Windows build. A lot of effort seemed to get put into transparency visual effects and window transitions. Maybe this is just my bias but I think industry applications are little better stress tested and optimized for things like file management
