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".

I love this! Now to remove other unwanted folders like templates and music

On my Fedora system (KDE) I have unified all unused and pointless folders (Documents, Pictures, Public, Templates) into a single folder called Unspecified with a trash icon. You could probably do that as well.
