       @duncanmid Well, is it not proper vocab for the UK? It's not the trash it's the Rubbish Bin in the UK

       @brandon @duncanmid back in the early Mac OS days, the UK called it Wastebasket. Did they change that?

       @brandon @chucker Bin just looks and sounds wrong. Wastebasket was too wordy.There was nothing wrong with Trash - it was the correct computing terminology for where the files you don't want go.A 'Bin' is something under the kitchen sink that no one wants to empty.

       @duncanmid @chucker Leave it to an American company to fuck up localisation of vocab 🤷‍♂️
