Even worse, many components will ignore the
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIRvar so even if you manually change it to$HOME/downloads(lower-case) it will often break things.Keep filling those bugs and stop complaining on random forums, kids
Porque no los dos?
Something something symlink Downloads to downloads
Yeah but the main issue is that I don’t want there to be a
Downloadsdirectory in my home.This is all fun and games until you try moving a backup to a file system that's case-insensitive
Why not just
cd $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIRin the first place?That's not an environment variable. It's defined in
${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/user-dirs.dirs.Though you can use the
xdg-user-dir DOWNLOADcommand to get it automatically.
