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.

As a long time Linux user, I’ve always found the file system layout to be a bit esoteric.

Also very windows like, aside from
