Screenshot of the Context Menu

I'd like to suggest the following:

1) Move "Move to New Folder..." below "Duplicate here", because those actions
are related.

2) Remove Open Terminal Here: This option already exists in the context menu if
you click into an empty space of the folder and it's folder related rather than
file related.

3) Move Encrypt file next to Compress and Share: Encrypt and Compress are
somehow related: both create new files, either encrypted or compressed. Also
it's not uncommon to share an encrypted or compressed file.

4) Remove Activities entry, if activities are not set up: If this is the
location to discover the feature, I think, that's a bad UX.
IMO it makes only sense to show this entry, if the user has set up more than
one activity in the System Settings first.

5) Assign Tags could probably go closer to Properties:
That's because, when you hit F11, it will open the Details panel, where you
add/remove tags. The details section appears also as a tab in the properties
dialog(!). Thus, these are also somehow related.


I think that way the context menu can become a bit more uncluttered.
