I use the `~/.local/bin` methodology for single binaries, too. Linux, macOS, doesn't matter. I try hard to not make my home directory look like a phonebook when I `ls -alh` it. Sometimes that's easier said than done. I also use `~/.local/opt` as a container for larger applications (like Emacs). While I don't have architecture distinctions, I also don't use multiple versions or platforms regularly.
