Ext4 is a file system used by Ubuntu and other Linux distributions. It’s designed for reliability and performance. You should be able to encounter similar issues on Linux, though the specific errors might differ slightly.
I believe the question is about the constraints of standard Linux filesystems rather than the operating system itself. I can share that they tend to perform well overall. They are case-sensitive, unlike NTFS, they often allow longer filenames, and they accommodate a wider range of characters in file names that Windows or NTFS might not support.
EXT4 serves as the primary file system in most desktop Linux setups. On OS X using HFS+, there are restrictions of 255 characters per filename, while paths have no such limit.
