From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Come to the dark side, KDE has Dolphin and it swims faster than any gnome could.
You can just install Dolphin on GNOME, you don't have to go the whole way.
You might as well go the whole way for desktop supremacy! ;)
Nah, I like GNOME, and I mostly use Nautilus anyway. :P
Also works on Windows
KDE is the answer to all of OPs problems.
Dolphin has been one of my favorite benefits of switching from Ubunt to Debian! I didn't know how "plain" nautilus was until I met Dolphin.
I've been able to customize the file window to my liking and it's really nice !
Using a file manager without split panels feels like going back to the 90s for me now. You mean I have to open two different windows?!
I've tried both but always find myself just opening new windows instead of using split panels. I find it to be more convenient personally.
Dolphin has split panels... Hit F3
Oh yeah that's what I meant, I'm so used to split panels in Dolphin now that other file managers feel old-school.
KDE gang rise up! Can't stand GNOME and its design philosophy, in recent times it seems like it's been trying its hardest to become the most off-brand macOS it can possibly be. Everywhere I look its more form over function. Urgh.
100% agreed. I personally hate the Appleverse, so Gnome just irks my gears.
KDE Nation, we are armed with Plasma!!!
We have no Baloo on this rig.
And Thunar was a thunder god, not a king.
Sweetie, I am very familiar with lotz & lotz of nix.
Refer to my previous post for Nordic jokez.
