| Dec 24, 2020 at 4:48 | comment | added | Matthew Sharp | This answer is misleading. /run exists because /var/run was the wrong location, and most distros either symlink or bind mount them to each other. They are not intended to be separate directories; /run is the correct location, /var/run is kept around to support legacy software. See lwn.net/Articles/436012 for the motivation behind it. | |
