Thanks for the hint! I totally missed that. So I think the bug is affecting
Dolphin to save this metadata in the filesystem. If I do getfattr -d
<directory> I see that some have saved the view properties in
user.kde.fm.viewproperties, but the ones affected by the bug don't.

For example, If I change the view of Documents like I do in the video to "Icons
view mode" but without enabling the preview, this attribute is added:

user.kde.fm.viewproperties#1="[Dolphin]\012AdditionalInfoV2=Details_Size,Details_Date,CustomizedDetails\012PreviewsShown=false\012Timestamp=2025,1,19,12,31,45.418\012Version=4\012"

If in addition I enable the preview, user.kde.fm.viewproperties is gone.
