@aesthr@wandering.shop Unfortunately Linux doesn't even enforce that file names are valid UTF-8 or anything like that. So what *is* a character?
I mean, yeah, sure, I know what you mean. I'm telling that since 20 years when people ask me. There were also times, though, when I had preferred case insensitivity a lot, from end user perspective.
Sure, it's definitely a pitfall, because it can be surprising to novice devs.

@aesthr@wandering.shop As an end user, quite often I do NOT want that "Paris 2023” and "paris 2023” are two different file names. :) Sure, you can also solve that on UI level...
