Public bug reported:
There is a vocal group of users with at times good and reasonable
arguments pushing hard to replace nautilus as the default browser in
Ubuntu. I'd like to open up this discussion here in public. I kindly
ask to please keep it open for a while to allow some discussion. I'll
equally strongly appeal to everyone to keep discussion civil or else
this ticket shall be closed prematurely.
bug 1164016
Gnome made search instead of type-ahead the default, Ubuntu devs agreed this
was a poor choice and patched the new behaviour out. But this regressed back
to upstream behaviour in 18.04. and is still the behaviour in Ubuntu+1.
Please let me hear your (again, civil!) arguments about why you think
nautilus is a poor default choice for Ubuntu and I will include them in
this initial comment for everyone's benefit.
Options put forward:
- nemo (a nautilus fork available in Ubuntu univers, Cinnamon default)
