@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.

@giggls @itsfoss to me if in gui tend to think folder and if in CLI or similar then think directory.

@CliffsEsport @giggls @itsfoss AFAIK they aren't the same thing. A directory is a file system thing while a folder is a broader UI concept. It could represent a dir, but it could also represent e.g. files from various dirs matching certain criteria. Two terms for two different, although related things. I'm fine with it.
