I don’t like the mess some software makes when it install in my system so I want to move it to a more appropriate place.

My questions are:

1- Where is the most appropriated directory for this? (some hidden folder made with this purpose, I thought linux had something like this as a standard)

2- How I move it without breaking anything?

    ~/go is created when compiling go programs, you can change it’s location with the GOPATH environment variable to something like GOPATH=$HOME/.local/go, and moving the directory there.

    Never seen ~/perl5, could you provide the output of perl -V
