    On my distro(Bazzite), /mnt is only a symlink to /var/mnt. Not sure why, but only found out the other day.

      I’m using Silverblue and it also symlinks to /var/mnt. I don’t think it does that on traditional distros, like Fedora 40 Workstation.

        I assume it is because /var can be written to while the rest of the filesystem ( outside /home ) is expected to be read-only.
