Why do you call them "folders"? That's Mac speak.
Very Feebish of you.
Ever since the astounding OS takeover by Win95, this type of "folder vs directory" insecurity is VERY common in Unix/Linux dweebs.
But...
* 'folder' in computing isn't a Unix or Apple or MS creation. It dates
back to the mid 1950s (according to wikipedia).
* the word and connotation of 'folder' is a much better metaphor
than 'directory' for a structure that contains documents and/or
other folders/directories.
* the file open icon on virtually all Linux apps is a picture of a
folder.
*
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/navigating-filesystem-linux-terminal uses them interchangeably, as they should
* between the two of us, only your household owns or uses Macs
pwned. Now git back in your folder.
