--- Comment #4 from Thomas Baag <[email protected]> ---
As a workaround one can create the ".directory" file in
".local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global" as back in the days and
write-protect everything under (and including)
".local/share/dolphin/view_properties/". With only "global" present, dolphin
behaves like I expected it to and is using the ".directory" information from
the file for everything else (including  "search", "trash" and so on). The
option "common display style for all folders" still needs to be enabled.

rmdir
"$HOME/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/"{search,trash,recentlyused,timeline}
setfattr --remove="user.kde.fm.viewproperties#1"
"$HOME/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global"
printf '[Dolphin]\nViewMode=1\n' >
"$HOME/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties/global/.directory"
chmod u-w -R "$HOME/.local/share/dolphin/view_properties"

As I understand the ".directory" files will stay as a fallback for filesystems
without xattrs support. So the workaround should continue working like this for
the foreseeable future. Thank Microsoft for it's crappy exFAT file system
everyone is using on their thumb drives now.
