• The case of the jump into the middle of an instruction from nowhere (2023)

  Well yeah, I mean no one forces you to use Explorer for file management under Windows. I'm an old-time Norton Commander user, and when Windows came around I switched to Total Commander. There are open-source alternatives too, even cross-platform ones, like this one: https://doublecmd.sourceforge.io/. That being said, no one forces you to use Windows either - except maybe your employer or the software... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Modern graphical file explorer

  For me, a file manager simply has to work and offer a certain range of functions. That's why I use Double Commander myself. Is this tool modern in the sense that it is visually appealing? Or in the sense that it is created with a programming language that is currently popular? Definitely not. Source: 11 months ago
