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 ?

    ~/Brojetos (anything relating to making stuff, writing, drawing, video creation, programming, etc., professional or personal)

    ~/temp (a non-hidden temp folder with a script that wipes it when the PC shuts down or reboots, used for downloads and such to prevent the “downloads folder is an abomination” problem that plagues any computer after a while of usage)

    ~/AppsGames (appimages, applications compiled from source and not installed to system, personal use scripts, wineprefixes, non-steam games)

    aaaand ~/OtherAminals (for stuff I want to keep but have no idea where else to place)
