At least cargo places everything in a .cargo directory, so it doesn’t display by default. Go will instead write to $HOME/go, without even the decency to use a hidden directory, unless you first define the GOPATH environment variable.

And if you install more than one version of go, they get placed in $HOME/sdk [0]. Last I checked, this path is hard-coded with no override, despite this being a known issue for 8 years.
