/home/ is a sacred place. It should have your unhidden directories, and a few hidden ones for things like .local or .config. Yet, now it seems like every single app now adds a useless hidden file that could have easily been in .config. So, I am going to show you where you can put some of the files clogging up your /home/ directory, and even some alternatives that don’t require a file in /home/.
It even makes config backup and versioning easy.
