I slightly customized my KDE taskbar by centering it with panel spacers because that was the only thing i liked about Win11. Set it to auto-hide for OLED reasons. I dont remember if the slightly floaty style was standard with my distro or i did it?
Then like two tweaks to dolphin to make it look more like the 'detailed' view in windows explorer which is the only legit way to view files. Everybody else with these giant folders is fucking crazy. Probably the only thing where i'm not open minded.
Uh, yeah thats it. Havent changed anything else in almost two years on two different distros.
Hey, man. Sometimes I'm dealing with images a lot, and it helps to have image thumbnails big enough to see clearly.
(And even the mini-thumbnails inside a folder's thumbnail are visible enough to be helpful, giving me a quick sense of what's in that folder.)
Yeah, thumbnails plus the details panel on the side is way more useful information for me than the list view. If I just wanted a list I wouldn't be using a graphical file manager in the first place
Eh, list has its place, and I'll still use it sometimes.
List shows you more files on one screen, and it can show details of the files like filesize and last modified date without having to click on each file to get that.
I'm among the few who general use / game on linux in the living room on a TV sitting on the couch at a distance, and I still rather use detailed view lmao. Hard agree.
