Confirm deletion of non-empty folder

Use case or problem

Obsidian will delete a folder with notes or other files in it without confirming.
I’m using the Desktop version on Ubuntu.

Proposed solution

Ask for confirmation before deleting (maybe with the number of files in the folder indicated) to avoid accidental deletion.

Current workaround (optional)

Restore files in folder from git history.

Apparently the behaviour was different before?

It works already

That’s weird. I’ve tested it again, it does not ask. The folder just disappears directly. I have deactivated “Confirm file deletion” in the settings, does this apply to folders, too?

Yes, it does
