Oh look, it's this stale bait again. I don't know why gnome devs refuse to fix it, but KDE and other DEs don't have this problem.
>>
>>52032280

but KDE is absolute dogshit that looks lie a DE fro the 90's
>>
>>52032241
It's not a bug.

>>52032280
Gnome have decided that Gnome can do without it. You can try sending them a patch that has this feature it in and they will reject it. This actually has happened before.

>>52032320
It's stale bait because OP is trying to present a DE as all of linux. This bait has been posted 6 gorillion times and never do they try to be subtle about it.

because patents

>OP is trying to present a DE as all of linux
Except he does not.

Then why did OP name his file loonixinanutshell?

There's a pattern of shitposters who post exactly the same thread time after time, week after week. I want to say it's the same person but I don't have hard proof of it.

Examples of clones include:
fucko threads
3.5 mm jacks and phone thickness
Google glass with Sergey Brin in a gym locker
GCC is deprecated
can't order pizza with non-free javascript

>>52032355

On Windows file chooseryou can: rename a file, search for a file, and lastly paste a link from a website. Loonshit can't do all that.

it is kinda dumb, but blame retarded gnome devs. There is a patch available out there, but on xfce it fucks your shit up.

the author expects to not maintain a shitty filemanager for 10 years
i would kill myself after 1 year

add the feature yourself
could also put a small reward for it

(but yea 10years is bullshit, ive been waiting on a few bugs to be fixed for 5 years lol very rediculous)
>>
>>52032421
The problem is GtkFileChooser, which is what gnome uses.
>>
gnome is a bloated pos anyway, if you like gtk just use xfce.

>>52032529
I wish there was an easy way to make Firefox use Dolphin instead of Nautilus on KDE.
>>
>>52032562
Firefox doesn't use Nautilus, it uses the GtkFileChooser widget.

Does it matter?
Anyone who claims that Linux is unusable because the kernel is full of regressions probably isn't worth paying attention to.

Submit a patch.

close to 2016 and I still don't have this feature. actually its the reason I post never pictures here.
>>
>>52032764
It won't help.
The root problem is with the developers, not the program.
>>
>>52032687
This guy is pretty full of shit. Lots of his complaints don't make any sense... for example complaining about the lack of high performance counters in Linux when the default timing functions are probably more accurate than on any non-real-time OS (ie, ignoring RTLinux)

I remember on Windows the default counter would only be accurate to 15ms... how fucking awful is that?
>>
>>52032764
"Hey GNOME devs, here is a patch to fix this problem!"
"Its not a problem, fuck off if you don't like it"
>>
>>52032840
If the GNOME devs let the community fix all of it's bugs, there'd be nothing left for all the women's outreach program interns they're blowing half their budget for to work on.

Just give it a couple more summers, they'll get it.

>very difficult to use old open and closed source software in new distros
same for windows

>software issues
yea, bememethesda poorly ports shit like fallout3 for windows and the lack of muh gamus is surely a fault of the os
>>
>>52032764
People have submitted patches to gnome but the gnome team actually rejected it.

>>52032867
Assuming that all known bugs are fixed, that doesn't change the fact that they have features that they want in the future. There will always be more things to do.
