      And now show hidden files and you see the plethora of applications that dump everything in your homedir instead of .config

          That annoys the fuck out of me. I want the folders I put in /home, not your shit. Put it in /.local or something and fuck off.

            I believe the folder you are attempting to refer to is for all users so you probably do want to have the config in ~/.config unless you want everyone to have the same. Also /home is the directory that includes all users respective ~/ directories so use ~/ when referring to your own home directory.

            Edit I can’t figure out the formatting. My client is showing <sub> where ~ should be.

          yup…

          .hidden file became my best friend - and a little context menu script for dolphin to easily add a file / folder to that .hidden is a thing i use way too often tbh

        No matter the environment, it is important to dump shit wherever so the user does not get complacent.
