Not that it matters much, ultimately it’s about becoming familiar with where stuff is put, even if it’s in a weird grab bag of /usr, /var, /etc/etc/etc. Still, I can’t help but check out Gobolinux from time to time.

    TIL as well. Biggest disadvantage for me would be not having ~/.config for easy access to most of my config files. ~/.cache is pretty convenient too. My ideal filesystem layout might include these directories but combine the program root directories into one.

    The structure of GoboLinux reminds me a lot of Flatpak.

      Is the home folder structure different on gobo as well? I never used it so i don’t know but on NixOS and Guix for example only the root file system is different, your home folder is like any other distro.
