I may be misunderstanding niemeyer's message, but just to be clear... "[...] hopefully making it good enough that people[¹] will be excited to use despite the name of a directory not being their preferred one."
What's this now? "People[¹]" covers "everyone except the snap developers" you know. There are best practices for naming configuration files and directories, and they have even become standards. And even if wasn't there's still common sense. Placing a non-hidden directory in everyone's home dir conflicts with all of the above. "If there's enough support for that, we can put it in the roadmap for sooner rather than later." Good. Sooner it is then, since this bug report and all its comments clearly shows that people[¹] want it changed. Btw: Does "no longer affects: snappy" mean that is has been fixed? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575053 Title: Please move the "$HOME/snap" directory to a less obtrusive location To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1575053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
