Afaik thumbnails have already been fixed in gnome

Do they actually generate a thumbnail or do they just show the available ones? Honestly I don't follow the issue I just know that thumbnails have been an absolute mess in gnome as long as I remember.

I haven't tested it, but either way the current plan is to replace the GTK file picker with Nautilus in a "file picker" mode. So if it is a problem it should in theory be fixed with that.

The year of the linux desktop is closing in! :) Well its good that they are working on it.
