@woltiv For starters, you can already remove your rant about the File Picker, as it is being replaced by the new portalled Nautilus file chooser releasing on Sep 18 with GNOME 47. That is the result of more than 5 months of top-tier, *full-time* code rearchitecturing, and only possible "in one cycle" by an experienced maintainer as a result of years of unpaid refactoring prior to that.
There are other things that are already being addressed with the new GNOME release coming out next month, too.
@woltiv Sure, but when you are writing a detailed critique like that, there is something about timing it and doing your research also taking into account what is on the edge of being solved, particularly when people have been actively working on solving some of the issues, with great personal dedication and sacrifice.
You are not a journalist bound to a code of ethics, but when someone takes time to point out outdated information, it is courteous and the "right thing to do" to correct it.
@nekohayo I have added a note to both the preamble and to the file picker section, but possible fixes in future versions in no way changes criticism of version <=46.
Since I'm a not a journalist and aren't bound to a code of ethics, if you tip me $50 on Ko-Fi I'll write a review when the new file picker is released. The Ko-Fi link is at the bottom of the article. It would be crass to directly link it here.
