I reluctantly did buy Extfs from Paragon for this. It's too expensive I think, but there are just no free opensource solutions.

  Doesn't that require breaking glass in Secure Boot these days, just like macFUSE? I'm not really willing to install a third-party kernel extension just for a custom file system I need once every few months anymore, especially given that Apple's native exFAT drivers now apparently run in the userspace. They should just make that capability available to the actual-userspace!

    > Doesn't that require breaking glass in Secure Boot these days You mean turning off system integrity protection? No. I have both ext4 and NTFS from Paragon, and didn't have to do that.

      Not SIP, but you do need to reboot and change some things in recoveryOS involving Secure Boot (or however Apple's equivalent is called), right? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/apple-silicon/installing-a-custom-kernel-extension#Explain-the-Kext-Loading-Process-to-Users https://developer.apple.com/documentation/apple-silicon/inst...

        Not here. I do have an intel CPU though, maybe it's different with an Apple CPU?

          Yes, this is an M1/M2 thing only (at least for now). Apple's secure boot process differs significantly between Intel and Apple CPU.
