Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

It looks absolutely great and I will download it, but I have a question, what advantage does it have, for example, to use this instead, for example, to open Okular to view a PDF?
I suppose it has the advantage of not opening a complete program like an office suite to take a quick look at a file.
And thanks for considering posting on Lemmy! I have no idea if you shared it on Reddit or if you use it, but I suppose that 90% of developers prefer to share their creation there because there is more public there.
It’s much faster than opening an application. Extremely lightweight and keyboard operable. Insanely intuitive.
Select item. Hit space bar. Use arrow keys to view next or previous item. Hit space bar again to close it.
You should test out Apple’s Finder. It’s packed with features like this that save hours of people’s time every month
Look, I've never used Apple's quick look or Gnome sushi so I can't answer this question. The people here can definitely give you a better answer than me haha
After reading about a user who was looking for an alternative to Apple's Quick Look and Sushi Gnome I decided to create this program to practice with python and make someone happy. I didn't expect there were so many people with the same need.
I think its usefulness lies in the ability to scroll between files (even of different types) with the arrow keys, plus being fast.
