I’m on gnome using the default file explorer (nautilus) and it’s fine, but I wish there were more ways to display files, I like MacOS style. What’s your favorite?

    I love Thunar. I can open a terminal right in the current directory. Unfortunately you often have to install the icon set manually when you install it without Gnome.

    I don’t know what Mac style means.

      I love Thunar. I can open a terminal right in the current directory.

      Dolphin can do this, too, fyi. Not saying Thunar is bad, but that wouldn’t be Thunar’s killing feature for me. I like the multi-window behavior of Thunar and how it comes with sane defaults and does everything the Unix way: exactly a file manager, nothing more.

      Dolphin does a bit more, but is still a very good FM. I use it because I have grown to like KDE Plasma.

      Same, thunar is my fave graphical one.

        Interesting style. I think no Linux file manager can display in that style.

      I was thinking I didn’t like the direction nautilus was taking, thunar looks nice, I’ll give it a try

        You can also try Caja, which is “the old Nautilus” from the MATE DE (continuation of Gnome 2, while modernising the codebase).
