It may look like a small addition, but standardizing something many Linux users already do can improve workflows, application behavior, and even documentation over time.

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”.

    Nope. Only makes for new installs, and only uses it as a save spot default if the application asks for it. Should be no change at all.

        When I read it originally (a bit back, maybe a week or two ago) it was new installs that was noted, though new users would make sense.

        I guess I’ll find out soon enough on a test box.
