https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399710 --- Comment #3 from watisthis...@outlook.com --- If going the sliders-under-device-names way instead of a dedicated view, there was some discussion about them in https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/axdwzg/dolphin_and_disk_space/ My mockup included optionally text under the slider showing diskspace, I don't know if those would fit there UI/UI-design guideline-wise. Possible problems: -Might look messy -If diskspace as text was fitted there somehow, space taken by possible translations should be considered. On the other hand Dolphin's sidebar can be resized as much user wishes. Note that at least in Save As dialogs the free space slider is shown only when the device item is mouse-hovered or clicked at. Hovering mouse over items is about equivalent to clicking the device and looking at the down right Dolphin corner, where the per-device space is normally shown. To be equivalent to Windows Explorer's device view, sliders should probably be made always visible in Dolphin. In my opinion this all should definitely be made _an option_ since some people would find it messy.

Ideally we should just use that code itself rather than a private implementation.
