Question, who maintains NTFS support for Linux? Microsoft? The kernel? The distros? Genuinely asking.

The current ntfs3 driver is developed by a company called Paragon, and it's been part of the kernel since 5.15 or so.

I was going to add some additional comments about this, but then I found that Paragon's website has an FAQ that covers everything I was going to say (and more): https://www.paragon-software.com/us/home/ntfs3-driver-faq/

The kernel is built with the NTFS3 driver, provided by Paragon.
