Great! Dolphin is also better than macOS Finder. I would replace it with Dolphin as well.

However, Windows Explorer in Windows 11 still excels in one area: it doesn't have a header, and the tabs are displayed on the header, like in Chromium.

It's also annoying that all KDE Dolphin tabs have that red [X] button. Sadly, the KDE developers reject great PRs like this one: https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/269

Who even presses those [X] buttons? I always use the Ctrl+W shortcut.

    the most recent version of Finder is... a bit weird. I like all of the tools and functions it has, but it's a huge departure from the previous version of Finder, and I'm not a super-fan of some of the feature implementations. but, if you're used to using Finder for a lot of work, you won't feel too out-of-place.

    I haven't used Dolphin in over a decade, so perhaps I'll check it out.

    You can make literally any window of any program have no header with KDE. I'm pretty sure you can make Dolphin look exactly how you are describing.

    Closest thing I found was adding a close button directly on the toolbar. No min/max buttons available unfortunately. Or you csn use a specific window decoration with a locally integrated menu: github.com/Zren/material-decor…
