GNOME 45’s Nautilus File Manager Gets a Modern Full-Height Sidebar Layout

Baut [she/her] auf. · 2Y

You can set the default app in the settings though, right?

Yes and no. The setting affects the file manager, but things like “open/save file” dialogues will still use the Gnome file chooser, which is separate from Nautilus and not easily circumvented.

Maybe they added this when I wasn’t looking. It’s been awhile since I did a fresh install of a Gnome distro. (I use Fedora for work stuff and I’ve learned over the years to leave my work laptop the fuck alone and distro hop on a personal laptop.)

It’s still a problem. And then once I finally set thunar as default, Firefox continues to open Nautilus. Removing Nautilus isn’t an option either since it’s a dependencie of something else.

I really hope choosing a default file manager woll be simple and always working at some point.
