What are your favorite features of the Windows 10 file manager? Listing what you miss from other operating systems can help the Linux ecosystem to improve.
Nautilus also has the default bookmarks for Videos, Documents, etc hard coded and the only way to change their location/remove them is by editing config files.
Oh, I found Dolphin to be a superior experience to File Explorer in Win 10. I had a particular hatred for how it would, when copying files inside a OneDrive folder and trying to instantly rename them, decide to mark the entire name field after about one second (when sync of new file is complete), causing me to erase everything I wrote in that second and having to start naming it again. In my last job, this occurred on a very frequent basis.
Man I wish my feedback would help but nobody is going to take the time to change something just because a random person complains about it on Lemmy, and neither am I gonna start a fork just for the sake of having my feature there.
Anywho, my biggest problem is with the “detailed view” mode and how it’s done in ALL file explorers on Linux.
You’re right, but also, in my experience by the time i’m wanting those more advanced features i’d prefer to do it in the command line anyway, and so the Right Click |>Openin Terminal solves all my issues.
Nothing, but my biggest gripe is with the fucking file explorers. All of them are super inferior compared to win10 sadly
Super inferior? Windows 10 is far worse, at least windows 11 added tabs, but still is far worse than krusader or dolphin for me.
What do you like about windows version?

I was more interested in what Windows gets right.
