Unbelievably, Windows still has a ridiculously short filepath length limit.
Are you writing parahraphs for folder/file names? That's one "issue" I never had problem with.
Maybe enterprises need a solution for it but that's a very different use case from most end users.
Improvements are always welcome but saying it's "ridiculously short" makes the problem sound worse than it is.
I think they mean the full path length. As in you can't nest folders too deep or the total path length hits a limit. Not individual folder name limits.
