"It was kind of inevitable that after VC-funded terminals, mail clients, launchers sooner or later there would be file explorer."
Well, Nautilus [1] (nw "Gnome Files" apparently) was created for Gnome quite a long time ago now. The company was Eazel and included some ex-Apple luminaries. So money spent on file managing is nothing new.

- sanitycheck 3y agoOK, that explains why I have so many problems with the Nautilus UI! I switched to Thunar but it's missing some nice-to-haves. I'll have to check Nemo. Regarding Spacedrive... Seems a solid idea but I think their UI goals (looks fancy) might not be aligned with my preferences (minimal, fast, high functionality, no jank).
