minus-squarePlexSheep@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up20·9 months agoI agree with most of your points, but I still think putting configs in the xdg dir instead of putting tons of dotfiles in $HOME is good practice. I find dotfiles to be that stuff that I want to edit easily, and xdg stuff to be that stuff that I don’t edit frequently (manually at least)
