The same can be said about other networking protocols, which is why we had options to display them, or not, and let us make the choice about consequences. Trying to find a photo from a phone is a pain, they don't have useful filenames. You've got to go trawling through them all to find something. If you're organised, you might move photos into sensible folder names as you go along. And you might decide that it is worth turning on thumbnails to find the specific photo out of 20 from last week's birthday party. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.42.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Sep 7 14:49:57 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
