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 ?

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking about. Do you mean the directory names?

In unix, ~ expands to the user's home directory path and / just separates each level in the path.

    Very weird. For some reason Boost displays those like the strings I wrote. Looking at this in the web client now, I see ~. Which btw I'm familiar with :) Thanks for the response!

    Ohhh, very odd. I've been noticing a lot of inconsistencies between Lemmy and PieFed like this, and now an app is something else entirely. Seems the fediverse is not unified on markdown support!

    Apologies if I came off as condescending, not my intention.
