Any particular reason spacefm stands out to you over the rest?

  I tried multiple file managers in the past. Dolphin is really good but it has a lot of KDE dependencies. Thunar had quite a few bugs that annoyed me, for example when I configured backspace to go to the parent directory it activated even when I was editing the path. In the past I used to use Nautilus until it replaced the quick search feature with a recursive search thing, in addition to removing the ability to change keybinds, plus I kept getting crashes and getting a lot of lag when visiting a directory with 10k+ images with it later on. Most of the other file managers that I tried either did not have thumbnails or they did not support tabs. Spacefm does not have any of the above issues, which is why I am currently using it.

    doublecmd, other than two panels also has tabs and thumbnailed directory listing.

    I use Thunar and avoid Nautilus pretty much for the same reasons. I like Thunar because it keeps things simple, and I have bash for anything complex, which a lot of my file operations tend to be. I'll check out spacefm and see what I think, thanks for the recommendation.
