So apparently this is the grown man's Linux, but why does its file explorer be such awkward trash?

>>109429029i truly hate the trend of replacing a tree view in the left pane with a "favorites/places" menu. what if i want to move files in a directory to arbitrary places on my filesystem? i guess the expectation is that i'm going to open a new tab, navigate all the way to the target directory, then do this for every directory i want to move files to? just fucking retarded. a lot of linux file managers are moving to this approach by default, but least some of them still retain a tree view option (although in dolphin at least, it's obvious it's an afterthought)
In an ideal world I'd be able to use Linux for everything, but macOS is currently the only alternative to Windows that's seamlessly compatible with the pro apps I use.
>>109429029As usual, this once OK piece of software was gradually turned into utter shit by designers... these people need to keep earning money, which is why all UI / UX is constantly spiraling down the drain just like a fucking turd before being flushed. God I hate designers
>>109429029KDE Plasma 6 is superior to Mac OS and anyone who says otherwise has a brain injury
>>109429314>Krashes
lol
>>109429029it just works to be honest
>>109429351 Holy itoddlers blown the fuck out>satania.gif
>>109429029explorer on windows, and third-party replacements for it, is/were the only good file browsers to have ever existed. Mac's is disorganized trash pretending to be more organized than the actual file tree, and every file browser on linux has trashy bugs, sloppily implemented features, and/or missing features altogether.
>>109429446in my experience the power menu and related keyboard shortcuts stop working after ~20 days of uptimei have to use the terminal to restart the mac
>>109429029macOS is a BSD not a Linux, retard.
>>109429273Just have AI write replacements for the pro apps.
>>109429071But enough about Windows.
>>109429638I'd rather not pay hundreds of dollars per month to Anthropic to churn out something that will likely be half-baked and full of bugs.
ffs drive something other than your gay supercar
>>109429628I noticed a long time ago how much GNU and Linux people love to take credit for the merits of Unix and its descendants. Honestly despicable if intentional, but I often assume it's just ignorance (mostly inherited/parroted from precedent).
>>109429727unix lost
>>109429733I wish. It's been dead for half a century now and almost everyone drags its winning corpse with them. I'll be dead before something else gains traction in the OS space.
>>109429727GNU is in the family tree—Linux is not in any relevant way. That said, GNU apes Unix so taking credit for the work of Thompson et al. is disingenuous at best.
>>109429314KDE is utter shit
>>109429029>So apparently this is the grown man's LinuxImplies OP sucks Qualcomm and Apple for their proprietary blobs.
>>109430124FYI, GNOME Jew said this.
>>109430124>hands rubbing
>>109429029>but why does its file explorer be such awkward trash?how? it mogs shindows and all troonix file explorers
>>109429029works on my machine
>>109433071>im tech illiteraterepsect the honesty but get the fuck off the tech board
>>109429029Looks like they learned from the best
>>109434565yeah, linus definitely learned from the best
>>109429029Looks like MacOS. That's probably your problem.Install something better.
>>109434601oof
>>109434601even the left one image is a classic macos copycat
>>109429029The default one is pure garbage. Install any other free one: Marta, fman, muCommander.
>>109434601Its not even necessarily that Gnome was copying MacOS. UX designers are not confined to organizational boundaries. The same people who designed MacOS designed Gnome and all the other hideous UX. UX designers are a distinct people separate from the rest of humanity. They have their own beliefs and customs, utterly detached from normal people.
>>109429029>grown fag's Linuxftfy
>>109434601It goes a bit deeper. Look at the first pic...>/andy/The Mac's original lead dev created Gnome's file browser. Not making this up.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eazel
>>109429029you gotta use chink made explorerway better than stock
>>109436320>buy best in class laptop>with best in class OS>with best in class file manager>troon it out with foss shit hobby trashcringe
>>109436320>>109429029They really have ruined the aesthetics with those rounded corners and thick titlebars.OS X had everything mostly right.
>>109436676MacOS died with Big Sur
That's a toy
>>109436655
>>109429029what distro?use dolphin not whatever gnome uses
>>109436655>best in class file managersurely you bait
>>109429071Grown men are supposed to get colonoscopies regularly.

>>109429029>So apparently this is the grown man's Linux, but why does its file explorer be such awkward trash?It really isn't that's just cope, it's better in many aspects than Linux, which could be fixed by just switching development to FreeBSD. But yeah it's still {{{UNIX}}}.This one of those places where slopix design comes into place. "the program has to do one job and do it well" i.e make a graphical version of "ls" anything more isn't 'one job'.
