WTF doesn’t llms.txt go in /.well-known/ ffs
it’s 2026, web standards people need to stop polluting the root the same way (most) TUI devs learned to stop using ~/.<app name> a dozen years ago.
- manarth 8mo agoI hadn't appreciated that ~/.<appname> was an anti-pattern. Do you have any resources / references on the alternative best-practice, please?

- ramblurr 8mo agoI disagree. Nearly every tui/app I install these days still barebacks my $HOME. When you report it the macos bros glaze over with the "complexity" of having to figure out the right dir. If they can't get that right after 23 years, there's no hope for .well-known/ (especially when they're vibing that tedious bit of code).
