Drives from Other Locations cannot be dragged to the sidebar
Description:
I've seen new users struggle to add their external drives to their bookmarks bar. They naturally go to the "+ Other Locations" button, which is good. However, when they go to add their hard drives to their Bookmarks, they get nothing but confusion. They don't realize that they need to go to /mnt
, /run/media/$USER
, /run/media
, or /media
to then drag the hard drive's folder to the Bookmarks, which requires advanced knowledge and is understandably confusing. I see no reason why users can't just drag these drives to their Bookmarks, barring any weird mounting anomalies, and have Nautilus automatically bookmark the drive's mount location. Should probably apply to mountable network drives as well.
