  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I like Thunar better. There was something really minor about Dolphin I didn't like. Maybe it was the way it handled tags or something, I can't remember anymore.

    Thunar = 🐐

    Although, the only reason I use it is because when i made the switch many moons ago, i was following this guy's tutorial on setting up i3 and he recommended thunar. Never looked back (although, at this point i think its more about the ui than any functional difference)

    Great! Dolphin is also better than macOS Finder. I would replace it with Dolphin as well.

    However, Windows Explorer in Windows 11 still excels in one area: it doesn't have a header, and the tabs are displayed on the header, like in Chromium.

    It's also annoying that all KDE Dolphin tabs have that red [X] button. Sadly, the KDE developers reject great PRs like this one: https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/269

    Who even presses those [X] buttons? I always use the Ctrl+W shortcut.

    My God, what a read... I love KDE, but holy shit, these guys really need to pull the sticks out of their arses...

    So can Okular, but recently how well it works on windows has been getting worse and worse.

    I use Freecommander with Voidtools everything for searching on Windows. it's nice.

    I love you, maybe my work laptop will be tolerable now.

    Really? That’s awesome! Hold on, I need to go install it on my one PC that still runs windows.

    [–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

    It would be more useful on windows than on linux too no?

    Dolphin is nice, but Thunar is my fave.

    Thunar is a little more clunky, a little less modern in design, but it doesn't hide things as much and I like that.

    There is also Krusader that might be worth looking into.
