What file manager do you use?
Oh, I didn't check recently - could you share the link about political beliefs. From what I know there are quite many developers right know and it worked flawlessly at least on openSUSE Tumbleweed https://github.com/elfmz/far2l

Double Commander
Abstract:
Marta is the greatest file manager for MacOS, by light years.
Longer version:
Before switching away from Windows, I was a long-time Far Manager [1] user. It is a great, great program far better than various graphical commanders. It had a set of killer features:
1. Quick directories, press ctrl-1 and you are there
2. No graphical cruft. All these tiny boxes and panels with buttons you see everywhere on the likes of Total commander, Double commander, etc, they are gone, none
3. It is text mode. Hard to spoil a properly done text mode with bad fonts, tiny fonts, etc - especially if you can set them up yourself
4. Folder operations. Open same folder in another panel, compare panels, selecting files, masks, regex, all done, all great
5. Great archive support. Open archive from folder, copy from archive, all done all great
6. Very, very capable build-in editor with code highlighting, and hex viewer/editor(!). I could edit savegames right from a file manager, imagine that?!
I could go on, but nothing I have ever tried on GNU/Linux and MacOS came even close to it. I even tried to use ports of Far [2], but it is... well, far from smoothly supporting either platform.
So I was really unhappy when using MacOS (there are few apps I hate as much as native Finder) until I've found Marta [3] recently. And Marta is truly great file manager for MacOS that even improves on Far in a lot of ways. Its author Yan Zhulanow is an extremely great developer who has put a lot of thought into the application, and it does everything that Far does (maybe sans a built-in editor), and it improves on it in many ways. Try it out.
It is blazing fast, it is very well thought through from top to bottom, and it is probably one of the few perfect apps that leave you stunned after discovering it. It does have a relatively high learning curve to learn how to configure it and to learn all the hotkeys, but the result is very much worth it.

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 you are using, but this is getting less and less of a problem fortunately (web apps, ).

Total Commander
I've been looking for a Linux alternative ever since I mostly switched away from Windows a few years ago, and so far this one is the best FOSS alternative I found: https://doublecmd.sourceforge.io/ - it's even written in Pascal, same as TC.

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.

Windows Explorer EXTREMELY Slow
For backing up files it might be worth using a different file management interface such as Double Commander(free) but is not particularly fast, MultiCommander or My Commander (free) which is supposed to be very fast.

Ask HN: Are people still using Pascal in 2023?
Indeed, it's built with Free Pascal and Lazarus.
https://github.com/doublecmd/doublecmd/wiki/Development
- There is a great, free (not fake free, but really free) bulk file re-namer utility that everyone should know about. You can re-name hundreds of files in seconds which is good if things are named stupidly or you just like conformity.
