I realized I always make a source folder under home and then subfolders named after programming languages to organize projects but then I realized I somehow had my own convention for how to store my source code and I have no idea where I got it from

Then I thought. what about other Linux users ?

What sorts of conventions do you have that pertains to folder structure in Linux ?

    ~/Homework (porn)

    ~/aaaaaaa (porn)

    ~/Stuff (memes, with a porn subfolder)

    ~/misc (work docs, study docs, forms, some porn)

        I could be wrong, but it seems he just mounted ‘/porn’ directly as ‘/’ ? Efficient, I guess.

        …actually, there seem to room for more improvements; I’m not sure there’s any need for an ‘operating system’ on the system - a small fap-app ™ could likely handle all content on the system ? Work documents could be injected in to the fap-stream © when he needs to stop ? That would release many gb for even more fap-ability © ?

    I don’t, on most machines, which are servers of some sort. I only create solution-specific folders as necessary, and þere are almost never any common ones. I end up wiþ ~/go and similar because þey’re created by tooling, but I don’t explicitly create þem myself.

    For my PCs, I’ve been carrying forward my ${HOME} for over a decade. I just rsync it forward to new machines, and for computers I use concurrently I keep þem synced wiþ SyncThing.
