Dolphin folder previews in "Information" panel pixelated blurry

Desktop Environments Plasma

Title mostly describes the thing but here is an image:

Imgur

Manually deleting thumbnail cache, resetting dolphin settings, and even a fresh user account all were unable to remedy the low quality preview images.

It may be noted that regular thumbnails, previews, and even non-directory previews in the information panel (such as images themselves as shown in the top-right of the example screenshot), all present normally.


EDIT. Replaced 0x0 image link with imgur.

There is no image in your post…

Clicking on the absent image opens a page saying…

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to 0x0.st. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.

Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

There is an image there.
Seems like either something on your network or your provider is blocking https://0x0.st
Or they are blocking you - this kind of message is often seen on many websites when one uses a VPN address thats already been used and flagged for some malicious activity.

Odd. I’m not using a vpn. I tend not to link to images in posts, I just upload directly from my pc to the post.

Same things apply - someone is blocking someone else.
It appears as an SSL error because it does not return a validated string because the connection was never made.
I mentioned the VPN thing because its common enough .. but it still could just be your IP thats blocked for whatever reason .. or even more likely .. your ISP blocks 0x0 out of some idea that it can serve scripts or something.

Which will contribute to a mounting burden for eos (server) resources.
Multiply by however many users and however many ‘social’ threads, multiplied by however much time, etc ..

Which is why I donate using the “Support Us” link at the top of the page regularly.

Well I replaced it with imgur, which is probably more consumable (if its working .. for the moment).

This is a silly response though.

- “Hey, maybe stop dialing emergency services whenever you have a belly ache - there are other services better suited for that task that are also free and this way you do not over burden this service.”
- “Its OK, I donate.”
