The Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard is over 30 years now and still it's a mess. blobPikaWoozy

@jeder What brought this up is I'm trying to figure out a modern location for userdir www (eg website.lol/~username/).

~/public_www feels a bit awkward,

@jeder So do I for normal stuff, but with userdirs I'd rather have it be in the users home folder.

@katnjiapus @jeder I personally use /srv/www/[domain.tld]/ for my domains, and keep userdir as ~/public_www.

The benefit of keeping the ~/public_wwwis that most basic documentation everywhere already uses that path, so it's familiar to users who I might otherwise have to hand-hold.

@dracoling @jeder In my case I don't have any users that's been familiar with public_www, so I can go with basically whatever I want.

I also don't use Apache so there's no like scripts or anything I have to take account for.

Honestly, I might just go with ~/Public/www

@katnjiapus @jeder Oh yeah, if you're not trying to enable it for users put it where you find it most convenient.

My /srv/www/[domain.tld] example above is 90% symlinked to folders like ~/dev/sites/[domain.tld] for my own personal hosting. The /srv/www/ just lets me keep my primary configurations consistent across several servers with different services and audiences.
