- it appears that some people are extremely particular about how everything should be in right place.by polotics
- Dude this is the same with cursor...its eating my memory so much.
- I don't care at all, no need for a .config/ move.by rurban
- I've been seeing this pattern so frequently of obvious simple things like XDG being ignored. Cynically, I think it's the result of I experienced people suddenly being able to make tools. They never learned all these standards, so if an LLM spews out a junky solution, they're none-the-wiser. Now we have a proliferation of software making mistakes on solved problems, as people are not slowing down to learn how things should be.by RadiozRadioz
- I keep getting the Unicorn or 404.by world2vec
- 404 on the page, main page: "Cannot retrieve latest commit at this time." [1]. GitHub are you okay?

by bArray - This feels like the sort of decision that well meaning folks that manage utilities can disagree on. It's frustrating every time it happens because it's usually a fairly reasonable perspective to ask for XDG / operating system specific support for folders to be respected. (e.g. macOS's ~/Library stuff).
Posting a github issue like this though feels like an easy brigading target, so please don't do that.
by joshka - This has been frustrating me for a while and is part of why I explore other coding agents.
As many advantages as pi has in some areas, there are definitely areas where I believe the hype to be a bit overstated. While the config folder is, ultimately, not relevant for performance, how this was and is continued to handled is a bit frustrating for me.
They have made it abundantly clear it's not going to change however so I'm looking at how other coding agents perform currently.
