Welcome to a new issue of "This Week in KDE Apps"! Every week we cover as much as possible of what's happening in the world of KDE apps.
As Carl is still in vacation, this issue is only partially complete.
Dolphin is the kde plasma file manager. Search up until now is very weird. Different search syntax when searching in indexed vs non indexed folders aswell as differences when folder is e.g. a network share (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=428950)
I personally use kfind when possible, because it works a lot better but ofc a good native search in file manager would be preferable

I never really used its find function. Whenever I searched for something, my first idea would always be to open a shell.
It’s a bit silly since kde spends so much energy indexing stuff though. I really should give it another try.
