Yes it would. Also, files beginning with . are not shown unless you |
| 13 |
use the -A/-a flag and therefore the traditional place for them is ~. |
| 14 |
Although having a ~/.config directory might make ~ look a bit cleaner, |
| 15 |
the use of .app directories instead of .app files, which is usual |
| 16 |
these days, helps to minimize the clutter. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Also, if you have a .config directory to put all these files in, ~ |
| 19 |
becomes less cluttered but ~/.config becomes VERY cluttered! |
