If you are using a rolling release distro like Arch, you might have noticed that your home directory now has a new member, a new folder called “Projects”.
For as long as I remember, Linux has always had a set of default folders under the home directory. Usually they are Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos and Downloads. Templates, Desktop and Public folders are also there.
Now we have a new addition in the form of “Projects”.
the “for as long as I remember, Linux has always had a set of default folders…”
lmao…
they’ve been bugging me with their presumptuousness for decades.
They can’t ask if we want those things?
Sure, I can understand people coming-from the MS-Windows paradigm needing such things done for them, but to just presume that everybody wants the defaults?
Why not simply ask, in the 1st-login, if the user wants such defaults?
Opt-in, rather than opt-out, you know?
I add a ~/prog directory, that I’m certian many who either program or are trying to learn programming, add.
Does that mean it ought be a default?
Why would I want a Public folder in my homedir?
