For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
All folders and files should be in lower case.
Why did Linux systems go for capitals in the home folder? It's actually kind of annoying and takes extra key presses.
....A while later "XDG Base Directory Specification"
Why does Linux do anything it does? Because a bunch of shortsighted nerds think it's a good idea. For example, try to install software on another disk.
Any help with that?
As someone said you solution is to symlink or setup LVM volume groups for different mount points. Essentially, it's all or nothing. You can't just put a single program on a different disk without then taking all those files and manually symlinking them to the right place. It's honestly one of the biggest Linux oversights.
Symlink your desired location on the target disk to the place the system thinks the software should go. (In my case, /usr/local/games is a symlink to a different drive.)
Thanks
XDG specifies the capital names, but to be nitpickingly technically precise, linux systems don't do this. It mostly is done by the distribution maintainers, and the XDG specs. A base system does not usually have a notion of anything beyond your $HOME.
Try adding a user:
sudo adduser basicuser
. If youls -al ~basicuser
you will see it's almost empty, just the .bashrc (or in my fedora, there's some .mozilla crap in /etc/skel that also gets bootstrapped).I like your style
