Who the fuck uses a file manager on Linux?

most developers tried to dismiss it as a non-issue lmao

lazy fuckng fucks

Joke's on you I use ranger and mc

Its almost like you wanna get kucked

>>58741437
SELinux won't prevent that, retard.

>>58741459
It will in strict mode with ubac

if you use the terminal or mc as your only file manager, you're either not a desktop linux user or you're such a fucking hipster that you should just buy a fedora already if you don't already own one.

Gnome dev already working to fix this.
They remove the ability to run files from file manager. Who need that function anyway.

What OS are you using if I may ask?

Fair enough, but strict mode is a huge PITA.

Looks like you're the fucking hipster, using Linux when you can't perform the simplest of tasks without a GUI. Fuck off back to macOS.

>GNOME
Oh, so it's nothing worth caring about.

>>58741606
The settings menu's setting menu has a setting menu to choose which settings you want to set but other than that it's okay imo.

kek faggot I use ranger and unzip my files with tar CLI it's easier, faster and lighter than your shit file manager

>>58741980
Is your caps lock key broken or are you just autistic? I also don't have any speed issues because I use an SSD. Stay mad and cucked, poorfag Gnome user.

>>58741953
So people are basically just shilling because of an GNOME exploit.

What are some DE's that don't suck? GNOME is all I've ever used with Linux and I'm getting kind of bored of it, DESU. I tried LXDE but damn that shit seemed like complete garbage.

>>58741639

Calm down autismo. I'm in the first category, not the second.

>>58741499

I've only been using KDE for a month but I love it, it syncs to my phone to I Can reply to texts without picking it up. Looks pretty, is fast. not exactly light.

All Linux DEs are buggy and unstable. But at least with KDE you get active development (unlike Xfce which is dead) and decent features (unlike GNOME, where the developers hate the users).

Just don't use it on K/Ubuntu. If you really love *buntu, try KDE Neon.

>>58742200

Who cares, people who fall for these deserve to be owned, would not fix.

>>58742853

It's really easy to say stuff like that until you're the one getting owned because some assumption you made turned out to no longer be the case.

>>58742024

>GNOME is all I've ever used with Linux and I'm getting kind of bored of it, DESU.

This right here perfectly encapsulates everything wrong with /g/ *NIX ricers.

Desktops aren't meant to be exciting. They're meant to help you get work done. I use Windows, OSX and Linux (serverside only) because it helps me get shit done, not to have something to tinker with and knobs to fiddle around with.

>>58741186

Security through obscurity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In security engineering, security through obscurity (or security by obscurity) is the reliance on the secrecy of the design or implementation as the main method of providing security for a system or component of a system. A system or component relying on obscurity may have theoretical or actual security vulnerabilities, but its owners or designers believe that if the flaws are not known, that will be sufficient to prevent a successful attack.

>>58741186
This is one reason why the """fragmentation""" of the Linux desktop is a good thing. Its more difficult to write malware if everyone is running different distros and DEs.

Imagine if Windows malware only worked for the 25% of users who had their desktop set up a certain way.

i assume the fix is file managers shouldn't be running .desktop files from anywhere but the */applications/ folders

>>58743879
Then it would drain a few drops out of the ocean of reasons not to use Windows as your primary OS

>>58743124
KDE Workspaces are much better than windows explorer when it comes to productivity, I'm a full stack developer and i have a different workspace for server managing, sql and development.

>>58741186
Who doesn't extract on the TERMINAL LOL

>>58741277
This, like what the fuck people...

>Thunar, Caja, Nemo, PCManFM
It's almost like everyone with half a brain has realized KDE or no DE is only good way to use GNU/Linux for over a decade. Shocking.

>>58743571

Don't be. I wouldn't use Windows (or anything else) if I felt like using them was an uphill battle to get work done.

Then again, I also don't have the usual /g/ autism that sets strange, exaggerated definitions for the word "usable" that somehow disqualifies Windows and OSX but doesn't disqualify Desktop Linux.

Why can't freetard file managers display an arrow beside the shortcut? Or have a "shortcut" in the description?

it's as simple as not installing it.
