Holy shit. I saw this when it first got posted and saved it thinking maybe there'd be some nice discussion on it by the time I got some sleep.

Nope, it's just some fanboy screaming KDE IS BETTER through the whole topic.

jfc.

If there's one thing you can count on within Reddit/Lemmy Linux communities, it's a certain subset of KDE Plasma users who get immensely triggered about Gnome, and feel the need to broadcast that hatred to the world.

I can't imagine caring so much about the software that somebody else uses on their computer. I just don't understand it.

I personally think tiling window managers are irritating to use, but I'm not going to take time out of my day to moan about them, call them crap, and even go onto tiling window manager communities and call their projects shit.

But I bet we still won't get working thumbnails

Fedora 39. Downland an image and then look at it in picker and there's no thumbnail. The picker won't generate thumbnails.

Ah, I know what you mean.

Yeah, the way it works now I think the file picker relies on Nautilus to generate the thumbnail first, so any new images will use a placeholder instead. Once you've viewed the file in Nautilus once, though, the thumbnail will show up in the picker from then on.

Yep which when downloading from one place to then upload to another place is not part of the process

Here's hoping this gets fixed, it's annoying and stupid
