    Works decently, although the initial start time is horrible and for some directories it hangs a lot for no obvious reason (might be the git implementation?). In contrast to the regular Windows file explorer, it doesn't hang the entire system just because a network drive that I don't even access isn't available outside of a VPN.

    Hm, installed it to give it a whirl and so far so good for me. I'm not seeing this lag or high CPU usage other comments are talking about, it's very snappy for me.
    Edit: After using Files for a couple days now, I'm very impressed. For me it's _way_ faster than Explorer in every aspect. As an example, I always have a screenshots folder open while I game, I keep it on another monitor so I can quickly grab screenshots and toss them in Discord. This folder is quite large and many years old. With Explorer, when I pressed the screenshot button, it would take several seconds for the folder to refresh and finally add the image. (It recently stopped automatically refreshing altogether, I had to manually do it to bring my image to the top of the list, this is actually what made me look for a new option, which lead me to Files.) With Files, it is *instant*. As soon as I press the screenshot button, the image is there, ready to go, before I even have my finger off the button. It still catches me off-guard with how fast it is because I'm so used to Explorer being slow with this.
    This is with NVMe drives. My C drive is a Gen4 NVMe, and my D drive, my media drive that has the screenshot folder, is Gen3.

Such as not being able to cancel “file move” operations, ui freezes, remote fs handling and so on… there are so obvious ways to mark many things cachebale just to not wait for the files list on slow remote fs connection for example. Or if we take the search experience: it’s just extremely horrible and i would like to remote it from my explorer at all

    It took Microsoft like 2 decades to implement tabs in file manager but that's it, no more improvements. Someone created a different file manager with extended functionality but it cripples the system.
    I see that nothing changes. It's the same circle of MS usage. MS releases undercooked software -> users rant -> some other developer creates what they need -> users happy -> MS releases updates/time passes -> software becomes unstable -> users return to MS defaults.
