624 comments further on HN, on top of a 1280 word essay about why GNOME has no thumbnails... And unfortunately this will change nothing, because of the immense amount of protectionism and self righteousness of these idealistic projects. I wish it was different, but with so many stakeholders it's really hard to reach a decision.

GNOME team seems to be busy for years on the goal of baking out some weird hybrid of macOS, iOS and own solutions that tries to be so far away from classic desktop paradigm as much it's possible so I'm not surprised at all that this issue is still not resolved. At least they managed to tame their DE to be not a resources hungry hog.
