# Affected version
- Nightly flatpak: Yes. Inconsistently
- Other: Ubuntu 22.10 / GNOME nautilus 43.0
# Steps to reproduce
1. Open Nautilus in the home folder
2. Drag the window to the right edge of the screen and release
3. The window now fits half the screen, but the top bar is missing and the contents are drawn glitched out.
Video: https://imgur.com/Z8b4Xp1
# Current behavior
The icons change position when hovered by the mouse and the window appears "glitched" for around 3 seconds before
it fixes itself.
# Expected behavior
The window is drawn correctly and the icons dont change position when hovered by the mouse.
# Additional information
- I did not have the issue with the version of gnome and nautilus shipped with ubuntu 22.04, but it started to show after upgrading to ubuntu 22.10, which uses gnome 43 and nautilus 43.
- I could replicate the issue with and without using the NVIDIA drivers (prime-select nvidia and prime-select intel) so it is not an issue of the drivers.
- The same glitches also happen in right click menus sometimes, especially in newly created folders.
- I am not using any gnome-shell extensions.
- I am not using a custom gtk theme.
- Im using the Papyrus icon theme although that should not really make a difference.
- I could not replicate the issue with other gnome apps. Just nautilus.
- I tried "sudo apt install --reinstall nautilus" but It didn't change anything.
- [NEW!] Switching to the wayland session fixes the issue, so this must be a problem with gnome and/or Xorg when used together.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/2560Instability of Files after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.102022-10-25T17:09:37ZGuy ChasséInstability of Files after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.10Since upgrading to Ubuntu 22.10 I often got instability of this application.

After upgrading to Fedora 37, Nautilus freezes whenever I search for anything.
# Steps to reproduce

1. Open Nautilus

# Current behavior
Sometimes it 2-4 letters of the search term appear in the search bar before freezing sometimes it doesn't get that far and you can see the transitioning icons stacked over each other. Sounds like #2010 , except it occurs not only after login but always. After a couple of seconds `"Files" not responding.` pops up and you have to force quit, waiting does not help.

### Bug summary
Searching for a file in overview shows no result, where as searching for a file in Nautilus works. It worked before the Gnome 43 update.
### Steps to reproduce
1. Make sure "Files" is enabled in Setting-Search.
2. Press the Windows button.
3. Type the name of a file.
### What happened
The overview window doesn't show the file I was searching for.
### What did you expect to happen
The file I was searching for would show up in overview.
### Relevant logs, screenshots, screencasts etc.

### Use cases
<!-- Describe concrete situations in which this application isn't helpful enough.
Focus is on the end goal, not the means to get there.
Don't forget to mention any applicable requirements or constraints.
Examples from your daily usage are the most useful. -->
With Gnome 43's full text search enabled by default, it takes a very long time for the first search result to be returned. For example, searching for "screenshot" with full text on (the default every time) in my Pictures folder takes about 5 minutes before the first result is displayed. However, it's about a second with File Name only (and in Gnome 42).
### Available features and workarounds
<!-- How do you manage to achieve your goals with the current version of the application? -->
I have to select File Name every time I do a search. Having File Name be default would also be an acceptable workaround.
### Difficulties and insufficiencies
<!-- Why is the current experience unsatisfying? -->
~5 min before the first search result appears is a large regression in how I use search in 43 compared to 42 and the extra clocks to set File Name every time means in practice I avoid the feature.

- Ubuntu (and Debian) use multiarch by default. That makes the default extension directory `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/nautilus/extensions-4/`
- So we also ship [a patch](https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/nautilus/-/blob/ubuntu/master/debian/patches/multiarch_fallback.patch) to support `/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-4/` I don't know of anything that would use that non-multiarch directory but it seemed useful to provide that for compatibility.

When browsing NFS shares, if you do not have any activity in the nautilus browser on that share, the browser start to climb back the folder tree every 10-11 seconds until it arrive to the mount folder.
Already reset .config and dconf gvfs and nautilus settings recursively, without more luck.

Thumbnailing is not only slow (OK when many large files) -- but is getting more a usability issue as it more or less blocks the nautilus GUI when busy updating many icons. Also drag and drop seam to stall a lot when this happens. In some situations deadly locking nautilus and I have to kill it.
This applies to many simple jpeg images and also to other default file formats. And similar applies to custom thumbnailers. I am talking about 1000+ files here in one folder.
I suggest to better manage the thumbnail processes and give them a low (nice) priority if exceeding a larger number to files to be processed to not bog down the machine usability.
Also the gtk level "thumb nail" update of the actual generated icons seam to have a impact. This rendering process also must be managed better to not impact GUI operations.
Another related issue: When updating thumbnail icons in the file view pane -- those often shuffle around crazy (icon size changes oddly temporary, etc.) for no good reason and selecting/working with files is a bit painful. Also when inserting new appearing files -- it should be tried to not shift currently selected/highlighted files and maintain the location/scroll pos and only move icons before/after the active selection if possible.https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/2462Can no longer connect to server using older ssh versions using ssh-rsa keys (...2022-09-03T18:33:05ZManmilan SinghCan no longer connect to server using older ssh versions using ssh-rsa keys (as Nautilus only reads /etc/ssh/ssh_config)<!--

1. I am running GNOME nautilus 42.2, i just upgraded my system from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 22.04 and with the new nautilus I am seeing the below behaviour
2.
3.
# Current behavior
I have a few servers I access using nautilus, I could connect to them just file when I was using Ubuntu 20.04 but now when I upgraded to 22.04 I am unable to connect to these servers. These servers use older ssh and ssh-rsa algorithms. To connect to these servers with Ubuntu 22.04 I had to add lines to .ssh/config file so that i can use older ssh-rsa algorithms. After adding the lines I can connect to these servers using my ssh-key but only in terminal mode. It does not work if I am using nautilus.
# Expected behavior
I was expecting nautilus to connect to these servers using sftp
