In Windows, more than 100g of programs and more than 150g of games are installed on the hard drive, where will this stuff be installed in linux?

For example on Linux Ubuntu? This question really worries me...

In Linux, there is a different OS hierarchy,
if in Windows the philosophy is to store all program files in the folder of this program, then in Linux
the program is scattered throughout the system
executable files to executable
logs to
library logs to libraries, etc.
.
In general, there is no one folder as a rule.

in Linux, each application is placed in different directories, that is, not as in Windows we indicated to install in C:\Program Files, on Linux, each application will be scattered in dozens of different directories

Nowhere :)
Why did you assume that all this will work in linux? Commercial programs such as photoshop - immediately past (wine will not help). Games - 90% past, no matter what they say about steam and playonlinux - well, a stone flower does not come out :) Old games - zero, mid-tenths - maybe they will work.
Adapted packages are usually placed in /usr. Non-adapted "all-my-carry-with-with me" types (virtualbox, rar, thunderbird) - in /opt
