       @itsfoss I know this is meant to be a joke! But I think about me being a Dane, speaking English as my second langauge. And where I use computers as tools but apart from that just try to live my life... So if people judge me for my imperfect English and / or for not jusing the Linux lingo correctly... I have to wonder what kind of world they really want to live in. A world where everyone are the same? Isn't that boring?I might just switch to Danish and see how well we communicate from there...

       @itsfoss I have started using computers when this was also called directory in the DOS/Windows world. It is still in a way. The cd and dir commands exist on Powershell until this day.

       @itsfoss It really does not help that many Linux DEs are moving towards "folder" themselves.

       @itsfoss I have no problem with people showing their ignorance.In fact, it's mostly helpful.

       @itsfoss I'm sometimes tempted to say "folder" just cuz it's shorter but then I remember "dir" is shortest and all is well (works better written than spoken obvs)

       @itsfoss we all have been standardised by windows terminology for computer use.Call whatever you want just keep the technical aspect in mind.
