SUMMARY
Default icon size (Medium 22x22) on Places panel seems too small


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install KDE Neon
2. Open Dolphin


OBSERVED RESULT
The default icon size on the Places panel is Medium 22x22, but it looks too small on an 1080p screen.
I assume it's even worse on a 2160p screen, but I can't test that at the moment.

EXPECTED RESULT
Have bigger icons and text on the panel to make them easier to see and read.
The bigger icons are also more descriptive and easier to understand what they supposed to represent.
And they look better and are more distinguished as they are colored.
Or have Large 32x32 as the default icon size.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

The Medium size saves space in the side panel, and was intentionally chosen.
