From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Windows File Explorer is the best in terms of features, most Linux File managers lack basic functionality.

If someone dares to point that on redit they get "Then go use windows" (Linux is not a religion). or it's opensource go do it yourself.

Is there a File Manager project that would like to implement features, there are many projects that allow feature request but don't act on it.

I got many ideas.

This is a very, very interesting take. I have seen nobody with this opinion in my life before

Did they add tabs or split view with Windows 11? It was ridiculous how they never had this in 10

It has tabs now, but they are painfully slow and janky

KDE dolphin. I have no idea what you are describing in half your items, but it certainly has preview panels, and lots of things you don't mention: open terminal here, synchronized terminal panel, split windows, support for browsing over SFTP, keeping folder tree as you browser down or not, zoom, etc.
