I find it hard to believe “File Manager KDE” would be unsearchable for, given that it already returns results related to Dolphin. I just don’t believe this is difficult at all, sorry.
I shouldn’t have to figure out the file manager is called Dolphin, the name should be descriptive by itself. The fact that you have to rely on the keyword search to figure it out is imo just bad naming.
well if just watched Johnny Pneumonic, you’d know that a dolphin is the best animal for navigating files.
(seriously, watch it).
“explorer” is the name for the windows file MANAGER… but still, whatever name they choose could reflect the thing it does a little better.
while we’re on it, the name “Lemmy” is terrible for this app. Sure, the musician is cool… but has nothing to do with it, and i think a big thing holding it back. (as far as social animals go, Lemmings have a terrible fake legend about running off cliffs together… they don’t do that, but it’s what most people think about).
e.g. Mastodon has been around for years, is actually really federated, not owned by a corporation, and a lot more features than BlueSky… but bluesky already has more users and i think largely because: marketing… how are people going to talk about “Mastodon” when they’ve probably never even heard the word before? (also named after a cool band, but not suitable for the masses).
GIMP is an awful name…
these things usually start as one person’s pet project, and they name it what they want… which is fine but once it starts to gain traction, they should rebrand it.
For me it’s the opposite, generic names make searching for issues on the web stupidly difficult.
No one has problems figuring out that Dolphin is the file explorer, and if you search for “file” in the KDE menu, it returns Dolphin as a result.
