We use GNOME Bugzilla instance to keep track of bugs and feature requests. You can submit it on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=nautilus Remember to set the "Severity:" field to "Enhancement". Naturally Bugzilla is not a wishlist, so focus on the current problems you are facing with current nautilus sorting options. You can link to this email thread in the list archives as reference, but do write a summary directly in bugzilla. Bugzilla is not a roadmap, either. But at least it's easier to keep track of the problems and proposals. > > On 14.07.2016 13:51, develo...@oldunreal.com wrote: > > On 07/13/2016 07:38 PM, Carlos Soriano Sanchez wrote: > >> Hey, > >> > >> ----- Original Message ----- > >> | On 07/12/2016 10:10 AM, Carlos Soriano Sanchez wrote: > >> | > > >> | > ----- Original Message ----- > >> | > | Hello ;) > >> | > | > >> | > | As I was trying to explain already, there is always cases in > >> which mime > >> | > | type fails and mixes up different filetypes.
