installed software

non-distro-package software generally lives in /opt and has binaries symlinked to /usr/local/bin.

Under /opt, the structure is /opt/{software}/{version number} to allow for easy switch over/roll back.

if you wanna know what’s available, idk try running it and/or check /usr/local/bin (which generally points to /opt)

custom software

in general, custom software lives in /usr/local/bin

• the greeter, which lives in /usr/local/bin/profoundly-gay-greeter ¹ (handles i.am@ signups) (and the equivalent token provisioner, at /usr/local/bin/provision-signup-token, which is just a Python script)

• whos-around (/usr/local/bin/whos-around). Handles the “Who’s Around” on the homepage. Written in nu, and served by inetd (/etc/inetd.conf)
