Qubes Fedora templates has auto file preview off by default in the file manager to stop random files or downloads from being able to exploit parsing vulnerabilities here.
The Debian / Whonix templates have this on by default. So it shows thumbnails of images and more in the file manager’s icons.
For security, could this preview feature please be turned off by default in future releases?
