Today I wanna talk again of my idea in the hope to reach a larger audience.
This new browsing system would track most accessed folder paths and save their name in a kind of "tag cloud", accessible from a panel in Nemo.
Most visited folders would be highlighted in larger fonts and default home folders (pictures, documents, etc) could be highlighted in a single, calm colour to differentiate them from common folders
The benefit to store paths as "cloud tags" would be to grow a dynamically, constantly refined, user-specific "map" where you can navigate to final destinations and avoid digging manually into folder trees, because lets be serious, browsing is a time consuming, procrastination supporting, boring and unproductive chore to get to our files.
Finally only files count and folders add a complex organization.
With this "modern browsing" system you'd learn a new and relaxing habit to get things done, instead to rely on manual digging.
And this would be especially beneficial for deeply nested files you visit pretty often.

With "modern browsing" I want to introduce a new method that nobody explored yet.
I talked of this idea on multiple occasions, here:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2460391#p2460391
And here:

in combination with tags.
