    The fucking GTK file chooser. It’s like all application developers have made a pact with each other to never use a consistent UX, with the exception of having to press ctrl-L to edit the path textbox. It’s painful. And as much as I like XDP, support for it is spotty at best, and sometimes downright broken.

    I mean, who the FUCK puts the filesystem root in a submenu? Or sorts files and directories together? I just want to talk and explain why they’re beyond salvation.

      I searched around for a bit, and apparently one could preload a library to replace the file dialog functions with an own, custom one, and I’d root for rofi (with a dmenu theme, kinda).
