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 ?
Reading back, my comment sounds snarky, but I was genuinely trying to be helpful.
Like what pemptago was describing, instead of symlinking your directories to /home/username/username, you could simply update that file and achieve the same effect, but in a more “official” way that may prove more robust.
