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.

except nowadays many distro mounts removable media under /run/media instead of /media (for good reason).
Where would you mount non-removable media?
I think there is no rule, but I like to mount them on
/mnt.A good discussion can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/u0ri07/where_do_you_usually_mount_your_internal_drives/
Wow. Talk about ways to skin a cat.
I mount mine to /media using autofs.
I was, at one point, using /mnt but ran in to some situation that Proxmox didn't like that involved bind mounts (can't remember what) and shifted them all over to /media.
