On any non Mac native filesystem I think. Anything that MacOS can read but isn’t the original filesystem (it used to be HFS, a long time ago, I have no idea what it is nowadays) will be peppered with those metadata files, disk, floppy, thumb drive, whatever.
It’s a folder that macOS will leave on usb sticks with meta data and stuff I think
Idk I delete it on sight.
Very cool, I’m still kinda confused why .DS_Store is the identifier for such a folder but still cool Thanks
On Unix and Unix-like systems when a file or directory name starts with a
.its hidden by default.This convention is maintained in the UI for MacOS so you don’t see the
.DS_Storedirectory unless you ask to show hidden files.On any non Mac native filesystem I think.
