Should not ~/bin be included in path when running via VNC?

I am baffled by a strange situation:
Laptop with Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS with the Mate desktop
If I access the system through PuTTY all executables inside ~/bin are
available for use.
But when I access the machine via VNC and use a Terminal window on the
desktop, then ~/bin is strangely not on path so none of the
executables are directly accessible. I have to always include the
~/bin/ in front of them.
What causes this?
Note: On Raspbian via VNC this works as it should, i.e. a terminal
window on the GUI has ~/bin on path like PuTTY has.
