From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I want one thing (besides a11y which is really number one): the save dialogue should be sane. E.g. let me create a new subfolder with Ctrl shift n...
You can do that from the save as dialogue box.
No you can not do that, with a Keyboard shortcut (ctrl shift n ). You need to clickitty clickitty with a mouse.
I do that regularly. I am on Gnome 48
1: Open files. You can now use ctrl shift n to make a new folder.
2: Open an application. Click save as.. "files" opens. Now you can not use ctrl shift n. I just tested it again. I am also on gnome 48. This is an old an known limitation.
