Just turn them on, you fool. Use a linux file manager with thumbnails then problems solved. Nautilus for excample.

This is like when people complain that windows don't have thumbnails. Only people who never used the system or who are trolling complain about it.

Windows does not have security and is a platform for commercial advertising.

OSX is equivalent of eating shit with your own bare hands.

Not having full scale thumbnail view is not an issue when there is preview available. So you are better off using Linux.

Well it's not like it does any good making a thread about it every 5 hours on 4chan, OP should be flooding the inboxes and IRC channels of the file manager developers if it's that big of a deal to him. Unless of course he doesn't give a shit about the issue and his only goal is to shitpost.

Now you went full retard, nigga. Firefox utilizes a GTK file picker, not Qt.

You have to switch to icon view. The button should be around the top left.

That's weird, I don't have that button. The patch is definitely installed since I can search it with pacman -Qs.

Gimp file picker has thumbs.
So is this even a gtk issue?

There's way better reasons gnome sucks than lack of thumb previews.

That's complete bullshit since Windows 7 or maybe much longer.
The whole shadow part of the window in Windows 10 can be used to resize it.

What? The border is dependent on the window manager. Also, alt+right click is totally valid and you should use it all the time as well as alt+left click.

>he thinks the border size should be the grab size
alt+right click is NOT a solution, because if you are on a laptop it makes it fucking awkward to deal with, when you already have a hand on your mouse which would do the job better
>>
>>52177384
>he thinks the border size should be the grab size
I literally never said that. What I said was the grab size is dependent on the window manager and many of them allow you to customize it.

alt+right click works fine with a touchpad once you get good at it.
>>
Since gimp has thumbnails in the filepicker, why not Firefox?
>>
>>52177492
to be fair you did say border size and not grab size.

i only say that because i tried finding a solution to this in gnome and xfce and i got nowhere
