Unity looks "intuitive", but I need an introduction. It could take a long time to figure out by trial and error. I had to switch back to the old desktop interface to do anything useful.

There's a Files & Folders button on the toolbar, but it doesn't launch Nautilus. It took me several minutes to figure out that if I select one of the Favorite Folders (in the body of the screen, but not in the top bar) there is a folder icon at the top right that opens Nautilus.

Why not just put a "Home" button in the bar on the left side? Could I do that? Right-click on the button bar. No menu. Unclear how I would add something.

How are we supposed to figure this out? Is there a doc (NOT a video!) somewhere?

Thanks.
