What i mean, is that i’ve found that a lot of GUI programs really doesn’t like # symbol on it’s path, although it’s not like it’s prohibited on UNIX / Linux at all…
find for example doesn’t care, but i constantly find and report bugs related to paths which have # to different programs, now for example i’ve discovered that if you have it in Dolphin and will try to recursively search from that folder - search will fail back to folder, before # in full path…
Why oh why 
it is a commenting sign in many cases 
Well obviously, but folder naming in path come on…uugh 
Remember it basically tells 
to not do something 
Yeah yeah yeah…Tells it only to some GUI programs 
It’s purely about coding and decisions…It’s discrimination of # !! 
you could find something what says this sign is a discrimination on someone and they all have to remove it from the code (like master and slave on GitHub)
Wait what…?
Are you saying it’s some political bs?
Like # is nazi or something? 
Jesus…Then i’ll never gonna use GUI programs again, that’s nuts
Gonna go suckless i guess 
Still, i assume that this was a joke
One word , one script: Ogham. It’s what the Druids used in ancient Britain until the Romans wiped the Druids out.
For me # means you are in “root” and about to break your OS.
That’s exactly my thought process when i use # before some directories name…
Clearly not for making it first in by naming sort, noooooope
Is there a particular bug report about it? I’m sure the Dolphin maintainers would appreciate it.
Yep will make it soon, like i’ve said - reported to many programs so not intended to stop
btw, since they were moving to GitLab recently, is it still appropriate to report bugs on https://bugs.kde.org or migration already finished?
Afaik Plasma/KDE hasn’t transitioned the bug tracking away from https://bugs.kde.org, so it’s (still) the point to file bug reports.
When I saw those runestones my first reaction was “nice code but does it compile?”. I should take a break.
Who would make such a barbaric thing to the filenames. It’s like using diacritic - that is just asking for a problem.
Me 
Even on Windows it’s 100% legit symbol and i’ve never had a problem in any program with it, and Linux technically have waaaay less restricted characters for dirs / filenames
Then don’t
NO! Linux is all about choice
Besides i already have crapload of such names from old days 
*Depending on the particular application. I only use OneDrive, but that was always a little bit picky too.
I assume there’s some “naive” special character processing/checking code flying around in the “one guy/gal coding away” universe which doesn’t account for all cases. I’m guilty of that myself too.
Best thing is to file bug reports.
