[Help] go and perl5 folders in ~/
(i.imgur.com)
I don't like the mess some software makes when it install in my system so I want to move it to a more appropriate place.
My questions are:
1- Where is the most appropriated directory for this? (some hidden folder made with this purpose, I thought linux had something like this as a standard)
2- How I move it without breaking anything?
I gave up bothering about this a decade ago and I just store my files elsewhere while software treat the home directory as 'application data'.
Agreed - I'm much happier with my /files directory. Not to mention I have no interest in organizing my files by type (photos, documents, music). Instead I have directories like house, finances, podcasts, etc.
I just wish programs wouldn't take the XDG directories so seriously and default to those locations. I'd rather they always default to last saved directory.
