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 ?

    Mine used to be the same but the last OS reinstall I reset everything, moved my files onto an external drive, and only copied them over on a needs basis. I’d been keeping the same home dir since I was like 4 or however old I was when I started using a computer. So needless to say there was a lot there that made me cringe to see every time I tried to navigate my files.
