A looong time ago, I tried using WebDAV for internal network use and I feel like there was an issue with it I didn't like and stopped using it and instead went with smb. The issue miiight have been that if I was copying a file to a WebDAV server it didn't give you a file copy progress? Can't fully remember. Either way, does WebDAV give you a file copy progress now?

It does. The Windows built in WebDAV client was not great until Windows 10, so that might be what you’re remembering.
I think you're right, I've since moved on to Linux for my OS, but never had a reason to use WebDAV, so haven't had the chance to test it with Linux WebDAV clients
Both Gnome and KDE have great built in WebDAV clients in their file managers. :) I use Nautilus’ WebDAV client all the time.
