I bet it's gonna be a file manager useable by power users with built in terminal, full copypastable path shown by default, ability to navigate inside of zip files as if they're directories, tree view, directory bookmarks, etc... Ah wait, no, that are the features of file managers of 10 years ago, after that they only got dumbed down to target regular joe. Yay progress.

Do you have any examples of file managers like this from back then?

    For the record, Dolphin has all of those features as well (although text-path-by-default and open-zipfile-as-folder both need to be enabled manually).

Sounds like you're looking for Dolphin, which is both widely used and actively developed and supported.

Ubuntu have made it really clear that they want to be a competitor to Windows and be very different from typical Linux operating systems. If you're using Ubuntu and expected it to be like Debian, you made the wrong choice of operating system. In my opinion, Ubuntu and Debian are both great, but they are targeting massively different types of users.

  A competitor to Windows? I'd say even Windows 98 has a better UI than what Ubuntu has become: at least Windows 98 has a taskbar that can show multiple instances of the same program. (And fortunately, so does KDE still, for now, for long I hope)

    Whether they're succeeding or failing isn't really the point. The point is that if you're in the IT industry, the Ubuntu UI isn't even trying to cater for you. It is Canonical's expectation that you will prefer some other operating system rather than Ubuntu.
