Are you sure you aren't missing any packages related to thumbnails? It works correctly for me on Arch.

what does "apply the firefox filepicker fix for dolphin" mean?

> what does "apply the firefox filepicker fix for dolphin" mean?

I would say it means using firefox with "GTK_USE_PORTAL=0" to replace gtk dialogs with DE-default dialogs.
