--- Comment #3 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> --- I dug up the history. Turns out I changed the elision from right-eliding to middle-eliding in https://phabricator.kde.org/D19471 for Dolphin 19.12.0. Likely for the same reason brought up in this bug report: to make Dolphin more like the macOS Finder, which I stopped using only a few years prior, in 2016. Then Méven changed it to the current style in https://phabricator.kde.org/D29794 for Dolphin 20.04.0. The reason appears to have been people complaining about the first change in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404955, which led to the current approach which was viewed as a compromise. Ultimately I think the right conclusion here is that it should be made configurable, since people have different file naming approaches and hence different elision needs. But I do still think simple middle-elision is the best default. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
