minus-squaredrolex@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up89·1 年前Yes, but this is the default on many distros, so for once the end user is not to blame
minus-squareMooseBoys@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up44·1 年前Even worse, many components will ignore the XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR var so even if you manually change it to $HOME/downloads (lower-case) it will often break things.

minus-squareschnurrito@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up28·1 年前Something something symlink Downloads to downloads
minus-squareMooseBoys@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 年前Yeah but the main issue is that I don’t want there to be a Downloads directory in my home.
minus-squarepaperplane@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 年前This is all fun and games until you try moving a backup to a file system that’s case-insensitive
minus-squarezlatko@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 年前Why not just cd $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR in the first place?
minus-squareunalivejoy@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 年前That’s not an environment variable. It’s defined in ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/user-dirs.dirs. Though you can use the xdg-user-dir DOWNLOAD command to get it automatically.
