Hi: guess I am just thick....

OK, so I am 89 years young so maybe the wiki I looked in is wrong?

Finding the place in my updated version of Linux Ubuntu is my problem,
Help would be appreciated.

I'll tell you the "trick" I use when going to a new system (not the same version OS as the old).

I create a "test" user (well I always do that anyway). With software installed (bot not user data) for each application where I am uncertain where it user data NOW belongs.  open the app, go through any necessary setup as a new user of that app, close it, and then search for all newly created directories and file. That will show me if there are any changes in location when I will be moving user data from backup to my (actual) user partition.

PS: Windows folk, remember to set your "explorer" to be able to see "hidden" files and you want to see full paths. BTW, this is how I discovered about the "roaming" directory when migrating from an old machine under Win 7 to a new one under Win 10.
