Though it sounds a little goofy to experienced users, I think it would be easier for new users to understand "Home Folder" as opposed to just "Home." If I'm helping a friend, I'm going to say "go to Music in your Home Folder." Using "Home Folder" tells the user that it is the folder they should be putting all of their files in. While "Home" is close to that, "Home" is also used too often for a main screen or menu system for devices and interfaces, as opposed to a location for storing files. "Home Folder" would be more descriptive and easier to understand. Like it or not, that's why "My Documents" has persisted for so long; it tells the user exactly what that location is for.
Anyway, just my 2 cents. I do think the naming should be more consistent either way though. -- "Home Folder" has 3 different names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382703 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
