Go to menu Settings -> User profiles -> Open active profile folder
From there, you can go to python -> plugins. That's the plugin folder for QGIS v3.
On my GNU/Linux machine:
/home/USER/.local/share/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles/default/python/plugins
On a Windows machine:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\QGIS\QGIS3\profiles\default\python\plugins
In those paths, USER will change by yours and default might change as well if you're using another profile.

Plugins directory may not exist so pastable path for current Windows user:
%APPDATA%\QGIS\QGIS3\profiles\default\python\Apr 11, 2018 at 10:47 -
4On Mac with QGIS3.6 , it was
~/Library/Application\ Support/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles/default/python/plugins– Dave XMar 11, 2019 at 15:15 -
this is useful for debugging - just change the name of the plugin folder if you are having trouble getting QGIS to load due to a plugin you just installed– MalcolmFeb 24, 2020 at 13:27
