GNOME's Nautilus file manager is finally matching the behavior of other file managers like KDE's Dolphin and Xfce's Thunar with a keyboard shortcut for copying and pasting files.

This Week in GNOME highlighted a notable albeit one could argue long overdue change for GNOME Files / Nautilus: Ctrl+Insert and Shift+Insert support for copying and pasting files.

It’s probably just that I got used to it with XFCE at some point. My main two concerns:

  • I love having the path in the navbar (and not have to Ctrl-L)
  • I don’t like having devices tucked behind “Other Locations” rather than in the sidebar

Otherwise, I find Nautilus much more aesthetically pleasing.
