Is there a way to achieve compact view in Nautilus?

I have always used Nemo (Cinnamon's file manager) on Gnome to achieve said functionality, but it looks alien compared to the rest of the Desktop and therefore I want to use Nautilus.

I think compact mode in Nautilus is part of the Gnome 43 release and might not be in the version of Gnome that you're currently using. You might also be running Gnome 43 but your distro could have left out the Nautilus update for some reason.

I am using Debian 12, which uses Gnome 43, now you might be wondering why Debian, well, let me tell you.

Until recently (less than a month ago) I was forced into using Debian 11, as my desktop's GPU - The Quadro 600 - had a very old driver, incompitable with any modern distro, But I have since upgraded to an Intel HD 630 IGPU (putting an IGPU after "upgraded to" feels very weird), and stuck to Debian out of habit.

I am looking to download Fedora (it mainly a gaming machine after all) once my data plan's usage stabilizes a bit, now you might be asking: "Why did he tell me all of this?", I honestly do not know, I just wanted to share my story.

They do not seem to have added it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
