            Bug ID: 431567
           Summary: Complete removal of Dolphin from KDE required
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: ergonomic.code at gmail.com
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Causes:
1. Dolphin hasn't developed for ten years. The cosmetic effects that make this
file manager look pretty don't count.

2. Dolphin cannot search for files. Built-in file search is not trustworthy,
since it does not even have primitive settings (date, hidden, size, depth).
Baloo is unable to search files adequately.
Just try to find the file "baloofilerc" using the built-in search or baloo.
Good luck! The problem is already 10 years old.

3. Dolphin is not able to work correctly with network folders. When I work, I
feel almost real pain. Probably https://feverfew.home.blog/ will be implemented
in Dolphin only after a millennium =)

4. Dolphin is not able to remember general parameters for all folders, as well
as reset them (for old folders that already have ".directory") when this
parameter is changed.

5. Dolphin is so strongly connected to KDE that it is impossible to painlessly
replace it with another file manager. Without losing functionality. And here
the user has a choice, either by losing the functionality and using another
normal file manager, or the surrogate file manager Dolphin = (

6. The only advantage of Dolphin over Nautilus is the functionality of
"bookmarks", "entry points", "separate network folder", "restore tabs after
restarting". In all other parameters, Dolphin is seriously inferior to
Nautilus.

7. Restoration of previously opened tabs. This was the topic on the forum 8
years ago. And just recently this feature has become available. It was
lightning fast.

8. If the folder is being read, no operations can be performed. This is very
pronounced when working with network folders or connected devices.

9. The file manager is the backbone of the operating system. The user will work
with this program most of the time. But KDE does not pay enough attention to
this most important program (for the GUi).
