Worst file manager I've used.
I’ll balance this out… Nautilus is the best file manager I’ve used 🙂
While I like Dolphin I always feel like there is too much going on.
Having said that, nautilus should copy the terminal in a tab that dolphin does.
It can't jump to a file or folder by typing, it immediately goes to search, which 80% of the time crashes the entire thing, and it lacks a ton of other very basic features where I'm questioning if people who use it even do anything more than browsing the web with their system.
I find it super stable. Opposite for dolphin for me.
Each their own 👍
The only time Dolphin crashed on me (always) was after a recent fresh installation, which was a bug that just required me to manually create the thumbnail folder. I don't think that's even a debatable comparison.
I’ve never had nautilus crash on me.
What do you use most / what's your favorite?
KDE's Dolphin I use most. I haven't used a lot of others recently to really claim it to be my favorite though and I don't want to form an opinion on any that I used just for a short moment many years ago.
