### Feature request

#### **Is your feature request related to a problem?**

When a user has multiple accounts added, their `$HOME` can become as the undermentioned demonstrates:

1. ```PS1
tree "$HOME" -L 1
```

1. ```tree
/home/RokeJulianLockhart
β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud
β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud2
β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud3
β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud4
β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud5
β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud6
└── Nextcloud7
```

This becomes incredibly frustrating past 15 accounts.

#### **Describe the solution you'd like**

Instead, it should be:

```tree
/home/RokeJulianLockhart
└── Nextcloud
   β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud1
   β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud2
   β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud3
   β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud4
   β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud5
   β”œβ”€β”€ Nextcloud6
   └── Nextcloud7
```

#### **Describe alternatives you've considered**

```tree
/home/RokeJulianLockhart
└── Nextcloud
   β”œβ”€β”€ wim.nl.tab.digital
   β”œβ”€β”€ de.tab.digital
   β”œβ”€β”€ nch.pl
   β”œβ”€β”€ collaborate.kde.org
   β”œβ”€β”€ nextcloud05.webo.cloud
   β”œβ”€β”€ murena.io_1
   └── murena.io_2
```

This would be ideal.
