Filesystem Hierarchy Standard - Reference Poster / Cheatsheet [Dark mode in details]
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.

But $vendor, which supplies $application, doesn't give a flying fuck about this. I've seen binaries in /etc/opt/$application or something like that.
Tell them. Many people don’t know about FHS. Seriously, just the person I was answering to was giving credit to some rando who copy pasted an image from the Linux foundation.
I’ve been educating people on this all my professional life. I try to make a change with the people around me, but I’ve also filed big to some FOSS projects that got it wrong. Some did the change, some were unwilling. But it’s unknown if even those did follow the right convention in their next project.
I spent a few hours making it myself. Of course based on the standard document.
