Comment 5 Andre Miranda editbugs 2018-09-04 01:37:37 CEST 
After discussing with Alex, we decided to push file sizes in binary format as default but keep the toggle in preferences.

Rationale: browsers show files size in binary base, commands such as ls and du too (altought they round up), even Windows!
