Dear Maintainer,

After a recent update in Oct 20, Nautilus becomes extremely slow. Inspecting its logs found it constantly scanning my Code folder.

(org.gnome.Nautilus:13407): Gtk-WARNING **: 15:15:56.912: While adding page: duplicate child name in GtkStack: src

I tried:

- Moving ~/Code elsewhere, to ~/Documents/Code: did not work, it still finds it and begins scanning it like mad.
- Pinning to a Oct 15 snapshot of testing, and downgrading Gtk and Adw packages: did not work, but I might have forgot to downgrade some package
