If Linux is so good, can you leave your files like this inside a folder? Aka, disabling auto arrange and leaving it spread around inside the folder, as we can on the desktop itself?

if that is a deal breaker i have no idea what to tell you

>>105974687 (OP)
usecase?

>>105974695
I enjoy organising files by keeping similar files grouped together but still in the same environment. Windows 10 used to have this features, but Jewsoft removed it. Like a visual organisation

>>105974687 (OP)
why did the jews take this away?

>>105974711
>keeping similar files grouped together
this is called a directory my nigger.
there's no functional difference between your stupid shaped groups vs a normal person's folders.

>>105974747
I have to click on the directory to see what is inside. My way, you can just see what's there. I also enjoy that I can keep variations of files based on the orientation of files. Also, you can keep variations of a file by simply putting files on top or below for organisation. All while you can have a visual representation of your project as a whole, all in a glance.

It's a pretty smart way of organising things, but since most people are retarded these days, they just don't see how useful it is.

crigne very verry crigne!

I remember when 'active desktop' was a curse, not a feature

>>105974747
The difference is one click less.

>>105974687 (OP)
I like the icons locked onto a coarse grid. Doesn't have to be a 1 to 1 thing, but having them be slightly off as in your pic is frustrating

>>105974736
you can enter "cmd" into the location bar to bring up cmd in that folder

>>105974826
If you access your folder from another device or make a backup of it, you lose the arrangements.

i haven't checked if any FM's support this since i've preferred detailed view for a long time. wouldn't be surprised if some supported it though

no

>>105975325
are you retarded
that takes 10 times as much effort

>>105975347
idk, i can hit ctrl+l c m d enter pretty quick

>>105975347
>The built-in Open PowerShell window here context menu option, which can be accessed by holding Shift and right-clicking the folder in File Explorer.
I'm not saying this completely fixes the problem, but it's better than the other thing

>>105975368
>>105975366
that still requires 2 hands and more than 4 times the effort compared to 1 or 2 clicks

>>105975524
you're opening cmd. you're going to use cmd with a mouse?

>>105975543
how will he copy and paste things without using the mouse? OH WAIT, ON WINDOWS YOU HAVE TO DO CTRL+SHIFT+C

>>105975569
pasting in windows terminals is just right click or control v

What kind of schizophrenic that arrange files like that?

women, mostly.

This thread only serves to prove how useless Linux is. Linuxhomosexuals like to brag about how you can customize everything, and it turns out, that was a lie.

autism is horrible. i hope they get euthanized.

>>105974736
because you allowed (((them))) to rename "my computer" to "this pc"

>>105974687 (OP)
>>105977475
OP and you are both retarded. This is possible and normal thing to do in Linux and was possible before Windows had it. Cope

>>105977564
>This is possible and normal thing to do in Linux and was possible before Windows had it
prove or cite sources

>>105974736
>>105975347
sir cannot right click?

>>105974689
I accept your concession.

The same way you accept others telling you what you can and you can't do with your computer.

It's so ironic that Windows lets you do whatever you want, while Linux cockblocks you and asks you "use case?" lmao

>>105974826
>>105975309
the folder has a title, so you already know what's there. even better

>>105977890
linux isn't a monolith unlike winblows, despite what the red hat shills would like you to believe

>>105975347
>typing cmd is ten times as much effort as clicking twice
is this why my coworkers are so fucking slow at using their computer because they think like this

>>105977914
hahahahahahahahaha

no gnome
no systemd
no problems :)

>>105974711
now do it in a folder

>>105977427
What the fuck is their problem?

works on my machinima

I don't understand why you want UI features to be implemented in a kernel.

Early Linux file managers for example in GNOME and KDE provided this functionality well before it was available in Windows. Nautilus had this 2001. Earliest Windows Explorer 2007.

No, the opposite. This thread only serves to prove how brain damaged and low iq the Windows and macOS users are. Linux has done all the features included this 5-10 years before than Windows or macOS. You are just coping with your shit Windows and macOS because you are cuckslave. Stfu and cope.

You are cuckslave, cope retard: >>105977564 >>105978701 >>105978730

>GNOME Files
says release date is 2001

you could free-move your icons even in Windows 3.1's Program Manager (though not in File Manager which only had a list view), which is dated 1992
here's a screenshot from a javascript-emulated win3.x because I can't be bothered to build a VM or real machine

>Windows Explorer 2007
Explorer started with Windows 95, in which you also could free-move your icons

what the fuck OP?

>>105974687 (OP)
more importantly, how do I make explorer open %USERPROFILE% by default?

>>105979643
not unexpectedly, requires some registry shenanigans
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{52205fd8-5dfb-447d-801a-d0b52f2e83e1}\shell\opennewwindow\command]
@="explorer.exe %USERPROFILE%"
"DelegateExecute"=""

bing/copilot helped with this. if you get access errors, try asking it what to do
