I think the target audience for orthodox file managers are people that accept, or can live with, the consequences of irreversible file operations.

I think the target audience for orthodox file managers are people that accept, or can live with, the consequences of irreversible file operations.
- eviks 3y agothe target audience can continue to live dangerously, doesn't mean the app can't add this basic feature to be a contender
- jasonjayr 3y agoI am fascinated by your position. Why would it be a must-have operation? What's wrong with tools that take you as close to the machine as possible? We used to have tools that could manipulate the FAT on disk directly readily available! And, IIRC, both TC + DC support deleting to the recycling bin. I know they do, because it's one of the first options I disable when setting them up on a new computer.
- eviks 3y agoBecause it significantly improves UI in the core area of file management (and the issue is undo, not just recycle bin, and it also covers e.g. renames etc that good file managers have) How does undo move you far away from your machine? Any why are you using a GUI tool instead of living in the terminal, terminals are closer to the machine!
