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?

Edit: Put up new version

I have 2 questions:

Do I understand the colors correctly in that /home is deprecated and shouldn't be used? What's the alternative in that case?

Where would you guys put configuration files for services? /srv seems like an adequate directory

I'm trying to remember this correctly, but traditionally /home is a symlink of /usr/home. I think that's deprecated and you should now just have /home
