General Questions • Have TMPDIR/TMP environment variables been deprecated

$

0
In the most recent distros of Linux, including Debian, the old parameters TMPDIR, TMP, TEMP and similar are no longer set. Are they no longer used? Has the location of temporary files for users and processes shifted to /var/run/user/<<UserID>> or to /var/tmp or to /run/user/<<UserID>>? Does it make any sense to set these environment variables? And if yes then what should be preferred? /var directory or /run directory?
