    honestly - while a Mac is certainly less painful to use than winshit, putting rubbish files recursively into each(!!) accessed folder, on all thumbdrives ever inserted, that’s something Jobs deserves to burn in hell for.

      You’d want that, but a lot of programs do that, both in Windows and Linux.

      e.g. The .directory files with the [Desktop Entry] spec by freedesktop.org
      Dolphin has the option to enable/disable the feature

          I have manually made .directory files (using a bash script) to set icons on folders.

          It feels good when programs let you know what they intend on doing.
