Dolphin is good but it needs a lot of configuration to get it right. Their default settings are a weird choice, like missing location bar, no folder up button etc.
i think that might be distro dependant? i'm not sure, i just bring my dotfiles with me; but i thought at least debian has an up button by default
also to be honest i don't mind non-editable location by default: if my hands are already on the keyboard to type, i'll just press f6 and it immediately becomes editable
It is editable by default... Once you click on it, it turns into a normal text field
if you click on it or focus it in any way - it's the same as windows explorer; and it is the best way of doing it i think. but i meant that by default it's a series of buttons, whereas some file managers default to (and dolphin has the option of) always showing a textbox there
i wish there was an option to show the
..folder, though. that's the only feature i miss in dolphin
