    How in the world do I set previews while browsing a folder full of photos in KDE plasma (I’m using Nobara because gaming), I can only see the generic photo icon. I love it so far and I’m having very few issues, but trying to sort and delete photos from a folder without a thumbnail/preview is impossible! I have tried googling the issue but apparently it’s not that common? I’m sure these is a dumb setting somewhere but I still haven’t found it.

      Install the package kdegraphics-thumbnailers, and then depending on the file manager you may have to enable previews, e.g. in Dolphin > Configure Dolphin > Interface > Previews.
