I fail to see how this is a "problem"? You implemented a sorting mechanism that was useful to your application, while Nemo implemented another which as this thread demonstrates seems to be much more useful and intuitive for the average user. This is also of course not specific to Nemo, as no 'modern' file manager on Linux sorts filenames like it's 1980 and all you are able to feasibly do is step through the bytes.

Nemo isn't some random app a teenager made. It's the default file manager of a desktop OS. I expect it to cover more use cases.

I expect the same for other file managers on Linux. Although I must say I'm generally let down by Linux software.
