It's 2022 and there are still basic programs like file managers that can't deal with network problems (looking at you dolphin).
It just seems odd that dolphin fails to show me *any* filesystems just because some network mounted filesystems are not currently available. Reminds me of the days when Windows would hang because some network device like a printer wasn't responding the way it wanted.
I feel like part of the reason people like web tech for apps is that for all its faults it takes asynchronous computing and transient failures seriously (because it has to), so the UX tends to be better generally. dolphin is a native app and seems to be doing something like "wait for all filesystems to respond before giving the user control", which is a big UX fail.
@abucci Hmm, I'm also using dolphin and had this never happen to me.
@lyse good I'm glad! I don't know why it's happening to me but it's annoying and unnecessary.
