longer filenames not readable as these are truncated "in the middle"

Hey @ferdiga, thanks for reaching out for your query.
Considering that Nextcloud app follows the same rules and style as the iOS Files App in this regard, this is required so as:

1. The user should have clear idea of extension of file.
2. We also needs & have to see the initial words of the file name.
3. Lastly, some chars are also required to be visible before file extension, because they give clear idea regarding the number of files when it has different copies. Eg: file....21.pdf, file....22.pdf, file....23.pdf, etc.
4. Changing the font size accordingly can cause really bad UI and in edge cases really small font.

Thanks for your explanation
Nextcloud needs space for share and "..." reducing the apace and letters available for the filenames by approximately 10 or more I guess, compared to "Files"
Nevertheless I would suggest to wrap the filename if possible or "scroll" all shortened filenames as done pressing Info + Details (Option "List/Icons/List+Scroll")
