Typically ~/.config.  Described here:

Many modern desktop applications dribble goo into this directory; you
probably already have one!  A large fraction of those applications can
be redirected to leak the goo elsewhere by changing XDG_CONFIG_HOME
without changing HOME.  See also XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_CACHE_HOME, &c.
