    #KDE #Plasma6 and #Dolphin are great, but the mouse hover tooltip is terrible. It’s a huge box full of completely useless information. For example, the file size. “Size: 3 items”? It should be in kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes. Why is there a star rating? And with image files, the box is even bigger. You can’t even change these settings.

      @bhasic I'm betting that computing the size of the contents is a high-latency task, for larger or network directories. You need to make a stat call per item, instead of just looking at the directory inode once. That can really add-up.

      (but... hard agree on how silly this tooltip is! wow.)
