Public bug reported:
Steps to reproduce:
1. open Nautilus
2. Select icons view
3. open Trash
4. try to switch to list view by clicking on the button on the top right
Expected: should immediately switch to list mode. There's no acceptable
valid reason for this to be slow. But if, for whatever valid reason, it
did require a perceivable amount of time (which btw is an assumtion you
should always make when designing the UI, because even a few
milliseconds can be perceivable enough that visual feedback needs to be
given and interaction can happen meanwhile), you should see a spinning
icon somewhere giving you visual feedback that something is being
processed (and you should be able to instantly go back to icons mode)
Observed: it remains in icons mode as if you hadn't clicked anything
(despite the fact that the list mode button becomes apparently
selected). I have no idea whether it simply ignores you and doesn't
switch to list mode without any error message, or if it's actually
processing and taking long because Nautilus sucks and is slow and
inefficient, but gives no visual feedback that it's processing
something.
But it doesn't end here:
4. Close Nautilus and open it again
5. Switch to list mode BEFORE you open trash (succesfully switches)
6. Open Trash
=> Now the Trash appears empty, even though it's not. Again, no idea
whether it's loading and taking long: there's no indication of it.
7. Try to switch back to icon mode:
=> goes back to the folder you were browsing before, and does switch to
icons mode.
It's all a fucking mess
- something is way slower than it should
- the UI seems to be designed around the (never correct and in this case false)
assumption that everything happens instantly, so there's no feedback when you
need to wait because something is being loaded, and when that happens and you
keep doing stuff, the behavior becomes inconsistent and everything goes
completely berserk.
This is fucking pathetic.
And don't start with "You are using an old version of Ubuntu bla bla bla".
I am using an old version because of an unrelated disgraceful regression in
Nautilus itself which renders it completely unusable from Ubuntu 17.04 onward
ana that to this day hasn't been fixed, of which luckily enough I became aware
before I upgraded, so I stuck with 16.04.
Furthermore, 16.04 is LTS and hasn't reached EOL yet, so bugs that render the
system completely unusable like this one have to be fixed and the fix has to be
released to 16.04.
Anyway I don't give a fuck. I'm sick of Ubuntu and I'm switching to
OpenSuse soon.

Nautilus goes berserk when trying to switch to list view in Trash
