"Of all the software that I used on a Mac, I have to say that I miss the Finder the most. I've tried every file manager available on Linux (you name it, I've probably tried it) and I can't find anything that's even close to Finder. Nautilus and Nemo are the closest but they are both buggy and are missing a ton of features that I loved in Finder. Everything else just doesn't have the polish or is just missing features that make using Finder such a joy."
Whatever happened to Konqueror ?
I remember many (12 ? 10 ?) years ago installing Konqueror as a standalone, non-browser application in a non-KDE Window system and I liked it for the limited time that I used it ...
Is that even a thing now or is Konqueror some weird piece of KDE which is itself a weird thing that I don't even try to understand ... ?
- 72deluxe 10y agoI remember under 3.5.10 it was brilliant and had loads of handlers for different protocols, was a fairly decent web browser, had useful plugins for generating thumbnails, web pages, was a great file manager for me. But with 4 they ditched it and started Dolphin. I stopped using it about this time. Sad.
- rsync 10y agoAlso worth mentioning is the fact that, IIRC, Konqueror had equivalent functions to sshFS built in ... I remember specifying fish:// paths in the path-bar and instantly browsing remote SSH filesystems. This was back in 2004, so I don't believe this was using FUSE...
