The issue seems to be related. The video shows a feature I had not noticed yet but that is certainly there: the problem does not manifest if I take the "precaution" of first moving the mouse outside nautilus before I click on a different folder. What I mean is: 1. open nautilus 2. click on a folder to open it 3. move back (I am using the side button on my mouse to do so) 4. move the cursor outside nautilus (no clicking required here) 5. return to the window and click on a different folder; it instantly opens Without step 4, step 5 is unpredictable - sometimes the folder opens at once, sometimes nothing happens and the folder needs to be clicked again at least once.

Clicked folders or files will sometimes open at once, yet the next time(s) fail to respond until clicked a second time. I am seeing this both on X11 and on wayland. Single or double click policy does not make any difference. I have experimented with different mouse speeds but have not seen any noticeable difference. This behaviour is, in fact, something that I already noticed when I was trying out Ubuntu 22.10. It was enough to send me back to 22.04. I was really hoping that the issue would be solved by now, but clearly it is not.
