As someone who uses linux to get other tasks done, rather than as a hobby in itself, I would rather have an aesthetically sub-optimal standard than have no idea what's going on.
- hyperupcall 4y agowhat other "alternatives" are you speaking of on Linux?
- int_19h 4y agoThis isn't some kind of new stuff. I'm not quite sure how old the XDG BDS spec is, but it's been at least 15 years; and the broad notion of using ~/.config rather than dumping stuff directly into ~ is older still.
