Trying to set the default file browser back to Nautilus as Nemo is pretty terrible and missing some required features. I have Nautilus installed, how do I set it to the default and kill Nemo?

xdg-mime default nautilus.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search Found it!

For me I just uninstall nemo and install nautilus.

Yes, the styling of Nemo IS terrible. A little bit of artwork could do much good.

… contributions are always welcome …!

if that could be done under pocillo would be most grateful [image] UbuntuBudgie/pocillo-gtk-theme GTK+ 3.22 based theme for the Budgie Desktop that has Material Design elements and styled using the Arc colour palette - UbuntuBudgie/pocillo-gtk-theme

I will put my hands to it … :slight_smile: At least when it comes to the Gtk3 theme, I know where to start. But I had difficulties to find my way around the Gtk2 styling. Will would this still be helpful?

absolutely - I would be a little surprised if any part of Nemo uses any GTK+2 stuff GTK+3 styling changes would be great! :slight_smile:

Cool, I will make the changes and send you the file. It’s a pleasure to be of help.
