Description

Folders can show generated thumbnails in GNOME file managers, making directory contents easier to recognize at a glance. It is useful when visual previews help distinguish media, project or document folders.

Thumbnail generation may inspect folder contents automatically and consume CPU while browsing. Consider privacy expectations when previews might reveal sensitive file names or images.
