✍️The ability to change the name of interface elements

Some people do not understand the names of individual elements in specific implementations, which can be misleading.

For example, sometimes it would be useful to be able to change the name of Lists to Projects

    This is the one thing about Upbase that's unconventional for no good reason. The first day I logged into Upbase I was testing the application and sent the following direct message to a colleague:

    "Have you wondered why they call projects "lists" in this app? It just feels like a cute attempt to be different, but strikes me as just … weird."

    "Lists" are projects, and referring to them as "LIsts" adds no value while confusing users. Please consider changing Upbase to use the obvious and conventional nomenclature.

      This comes from To-do lists

      The naming was already used by Basecamp,

      one of the first solutions of this type many years ago.

      🤔

      I know that in companies and corporate solutions it is incomprehensible.

      In comparable:

      In Clickup there is e.g.

      Workspaces / Projects / List view

      In Upbase

      Workspaces / Lists / Tasks / List view
