I absolutely despise the following directories: Documents, Music, Pictures, Public, Templates, Videos.

Change them: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_user_directories

  The apps dumping files into foldes like Documents usually don’t care about the XDG_user_directories spec, iirc.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
