=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [06:38] hey [06:39] I'm noticing behavior in Thunar, where if I open a file with the non-default application, Thunar by default seems to make that application the new default application [06:39] which is really annoying [06:39] just because I open an image once in GIMP (which takes a few seconds to load), doesnt mean I want to open every image and GIMP (and thus want to wait a few seconds to merely view it) [06:40] anybody a clue how I can turn that off? [06:42] https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=10952 [06:44] "RESOLVED: WONTFIX" [06:44] so...bad luck? [06:48] hmmr [06:48] seems like an atrociously bad decision [06:49] for me a more or less makes Thunar unusable [06:50] oh wait, this behavior only happens if there isn't a clear default? [06:50] hmmr [06:51] you can always change the default later [06:51] even then it's not great default behavior [06:52] it means the default experience is inconsistent at best [06:52] so are you instead suggesting that a user should explicitly go set the default application every time they handle a new filetype? [06:52] and depends on which apps you use in general very annoying [06:52] i don't think that's very user-friendly either [06:52] knome: this issue only exists on xubuntu [06:53] (read thunar I guesS) [06:53] on regular ubuntu i've never even had to think about this [06:53] it has it's default, which are static, which I can change when I want to [06:53] no dynamic behavior as long as I don't remove any apps [06:53] so what if you open a new filetype you've never touched before? [06:54] that not the issue here [06:54] the issue is a constantly changing default [06:54] "this behavior only happens if there isn't a clear default" [06:54] for a new filetype, once could ask on the first go [06:54] how is that supposed to be interpreted? [06:54] knome: that me trying to interpret the bug report [06:55] still need to verify, if that's really the case [06:56] not sure if i'm hit by this issue because I replaced ristretto with eom [17:31] hi [17:33] hello n-iCe [17:35] :D [17:35] you should join #xubuntu-offtopic we're saying "hello" to each other 24/7 over there :P (and occasionally we say something more)
