Btw, the link I am following on the net, https://computingforgeeks.com/install-nextcloud-on-centos-with-php-apache-mariadb/, for installing nextcloud is installing it to /var/www/html/nextcloud whereas some links I saw for owncloud installed it to /var/www/owncloud, ie one level higher. BTW, I have php 7.2 from SCL, not using Remi's repo as used in the link.

Are there any (security) arguments for using one or the other location?
