Nautilus is not exactly a power tool. Personally I rather enjoy spacefm.
Its super trivial to bind hotkeys to shell functions that operate on the current directory or files or whatever. I know that some of this can be done with custom actions but its nice to be able to a) bind keys not just provide a context menu item and b) create a custom command with a few clicks.
Example something like autojump or what have you is a common tool for shell users. Its nice to bind a key to pop up a prompt key in a string and have this jump to a directory in your file manager using the same source of info as autojump.
This took like 30 seconds to figure out and set up.
Another example a hotkey show a thumbnail gallery of every image recursively below current dir.
