I wanted to work on one of the vim plugins that I had installed using vim-plug for my neovim, and was trying to avoid another copy of the plugin repo. But I am unable to find the default directory in which the plugins that have been installed are kept.
I lack a lot of knowledge about vim so I tried googling but was unable to find anything, also went through the init.vim but was unable to find anything.
I found it myself, and thus answering it on my own, will help some other helpless soul or me if I forget again (most likely scenario). The location is
~/local/share/nvim/plugged/
