How the fuck is that possible, permissible, tolerated?
Another example. I am looking for a different file browser because Dolphin waits while something happens when I select a bunch of files and right-click. I know that it is downloading something very slowly because I can see the network activity but I have no idea why.

File browsers being slow seems like a common issue. When I tell Windows 11 Explorer to sort by modified date, it has to slowly load the list and populate the files one by one. What the fuck it is doing I have absolutely no clue. All I know is that it's doing something it shouldn't, because the last modified date should be returned instantly by the directory listing, and no additional metadata should be required to perform the sort.
And back on macOS, around five years ago, whenever I opened a folder, Finder would wait for a few seconds and then play the uncollapse animation for every folder I have expanded, shifting the position of basically every item in the list (and also causing tons of lag).
I think the second one is a well-intentioned feature that just needs some work, but the first one is just garbage, that's not how it should work.
