Still looking for a good replacement on Mac, the software mentioned by this site all are lacking important features.

Fascinating. I used it in the '00s and would never have thought to try it again. Why don't out think it's so popular in Hungary? And Cuba, Czechia, Slovakia...? UTF-8 capabilities? I'm wondering it if is similar to Emacs Dired
I think it's because it resembles Norton commander

This is a little bit like saying that people wearing different types of trousers do so because they can't all wear the same identical type due to lack of knowledge on how to wear them. People have varying tastes and use cases. To me eveyrthing you described as "proper" in windows looks the way you described linux - done by someone who doesn't know how to properly build an OS ui. I don't understand why someone would e…
I am a bit baffled by the general comment as a whole, TBH. I mean, as an obvious canonical example, there is an extremely common frequent example of wearing clothes wrongly that is so obvious you actively invite the comparison. Baseball caps. Caps have a reason for existing: the visor is to shade your eyes. That's its purpose. For reasons, it became trendy for kids to wear them backwards, and now the majority are wor…
Bill backwards hides my lack of a haircut, keeps my bald spot from getting sunburned, stays completely out of vision, keeps swear from dropping into my eyes, and with bill down along the back of my neck doesn’t take up any additional space.
Then when I need to block the sun glare I have the heat available on my head and can just spin it around.

No, you just turn it around when you need to activate that function.

AI training data, can be thousands of files.
And what are you doing with these files?
Around 110000 files checked out related to the OEIS database. The project is open source here: https://loda-lang.org/
I'm experimenting training a vision transformer with ARC tasks. There are 800 tasks, and each task augmented yields around 10000 files. However my ViT code cannot solve any ARC tasks, but my non-ViT code solves 6 ARC tasks. https://lab42.global/arcathon/leaderboard/

I remember once I needed to rename a bunch of files to a template similar to NewName_001, upwards of 100. TC lets you just set a name pattern and follows it, which meant I did it in about 10 seconds. My colleague took 10 minutes and a lot of groaning about "why isn't there a better way?".
(This is just to help macOS Finder users, not to say, "Well, Finder can do it too!!) You can select multiple files in Finder > Right-click on one of them > Rename. That'll bring up a modal with some bulk-rename options, including a name pattern. It's not intuitive, but was really cool when I found it for the first time!
For all the MacOS dual pane file-manager fans: I tried them all and only recently discovered Marta ( https://marta.sh/ ) which is now my favourite file manager!
What about Nimble Commander ( https://magnumbytes.com )? I’ve been using it for years and it’s great. Did you try it and if so, how does it compare to Marta?
