Screenshot showing 2x scaled display settings and 256px dolphin thumbnails

Interesting - my screen scaling is set to 2x, and thumbnail size maxed out, but
it does seem like they're still 256px. See attached screenshot - there are 5
rows, and even without padding or dolphin UI, that would be 5*512px = 2560px,
greater than my vertical resolution of 2160px. And the dolphin UI (and all UI
elements in my desktop environment) are appropriately scaled - if scaled larger
they'd be too big.

I understand, however, especially from Rog131's helpful reply, how deep this
functionality runs and how dependent it is on other standards and packages, so
I see it would be a laborious change.

But I do think that as resolutions get ever bigger and devices more
multi-purpose and media-heavy, such a change to the whole ecosystem is
(hopefully) due eventually. But I imagine this is isn't in the hands of the
Dolphin team or even KDE.

It's a bummer though. I've tried Gwenview, DigiKam, and several other pieces of
software, and so far nothing has this relatively basic (from a user's
perspective) functionality :(
