I guess I will be I dunno. Right now I use documents for projects but I'd rather just have literal documents there. Should be nice.
>>
Makes sense, I guess. Mine’s named ‘code’ because I only use the computer for programming at my day job. But same principle applies.

I changed the folder name to "Projects" after I heard about it. Technically, I could have just set the XDG variable to be what the folder was already named, but it's the same end result.

Yes but I don’t want other programs using it as a new dumping ground
I have a nested hierarchy in there
>>
>>109565925
there is no need for the operating system or other programs to know where your school projects are
>>
i just stick everything that doesn't fit in the other directories into ~/Public
>>
>>109565925
I was already calling it that for a while, so. I just hope that doesn't mean some shit app will make it a trashcan
>>
>>109565925
I do *technically* have a projects folder, but it's in my Documents folder.

You're doing it wrong. Public is the folder you use when you want the files to be exposed publically via HTTP or FTP or rsync.
>>
>>109565925
I use "Develop" for both personal projects and stuff I have to build from source. It is only for programming though.
>>
>>109565925
Yes, I used to have that stuff in Public but Projects makes more sense for most of it
>>
Documents folder: I am forgotten, apparently.
>>
>>109565925
Glad freedesktop never put 3D Objects folder

Fuck Red Hat. Fuck the FreeDesktop org. Fuck XDG.

~/Source and ~/Software, like someone who isn't a lobotomized freetard.
