Can those of you folks who see the same "misbehavior"
chip in by confirming here -

?
I poked around a bit and it looks like this behavior is
intentional:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/497#note_875764
Basically, a flag is added to MTP GVFS mounts to prevent
nautilus from attempting to create thumbnails, due to slow
performance of those types of mount points.
There’s a link to an even older issue (that predated the
move to gitlab) so it’s been that way for a while.
Yes, that was why I filed this as a "bug" - because it used
to work in the past - and it's bit disappointing, if was to
vent out, that nobody from devs commented there.
I think it will be a reasonable request from all the users -
such a mount being slow or not - that Nautilus settings will
be fixed or changed because they are utterly misleading, if
that is how 'gvfs' works in reality right now.
Or! give back that executive decision to the users - which
I'd advocate for - whether or not users want/need thumbnails
off their Android phones.
many thanks, L
