Why would anybody use NTFS? btrfs ftw. Also all EFI partitions are FAT. And lastly, if you want a USB stick to be portable across operating systems, FAT is still the way to go
I don't want it portable, I want windows users to lose. I use ext4 on all my usb drives
Btrfs with compression can substantially "increase" capacity of your USB stick. IIRC I managed to fit 20-30% more data on 64Gb stick than its maximum capacity!
