Hey, I’ve recently designed a Poster about the FHS since I often forget where I should place or find things. Do you have any feedback how to make it better?

I updated the poster: https://whimsical.com/fhs-L6iL5t8kBtCFzAQywZyP4X use the link to see online.

    well nix still uses the same structure, the only difference is that files are symlinked to files in subfolders of the /nix/store folder.

    For example you may find that /etc/hosts is just a symlink to /nix/store/69420aaabbbcccdddfffggghhhiii420-hosts

      Not everything is in its FHS location, unless you use steam-run. Binaries arwn’t in /bin, for example

        I mean fair enough, some files are in /run/current-system/sw/
