Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported flow: open a file from Files and observe whether the Nextcloud sidebar opens or flickers before the file appears. Trace the file-opening and sidebar state transitions in the frontend; done means opening a file leaves the sidebar closed and does not show the reported flicker.
