There’s no game related dirs in your My Documents dir? Most don’t even use My Games they just dump directly into My Documents. I guarantee most game devs don’t understand the difference between local and roaming either. They just put shit randomly wherever they want

Oh, on Windows, sure. Not on Linux though.

Linux is just as bad. You actually got anything in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or is your /home just a dot file dumping ground?

lol, this almost reads as a personal attack.

I have almost nothing in my home directory, no. Been applying this to clean it up even further. I want my chezmoi dotfiles repo to be clean. Especially not games' files since I run Steam through flatpak. It does put things in ~/.var but at least it's collected to one point.

Not really a problem of "Linux" or "Windows", but more of "developers".

Sorry. Definitely not meant as one lol

That last line is 100% true

  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
