No worries, Joel Teixeira, we'll still be here if you need us, working on developing modern package management for Linux, and hopefully making it good enough that people will be excited to use despite the name of a directory not being their preferred one.
In fact, we can definitely work allowing a per-user configuration setting so everyone can tune the name to their own preference. If you're doing that, it means you know where to find the data, and so we don't need to be worried that important information is tucked away in an obscure location. If there's enough support for that, we can put it in the roadmap for sooner rather than later. That will actually help even for when we do the actual transition into the hidden directory, as it means we could keep existing directories untouched so we don't break anything and people don't get confused by data moving. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Will provide more details about the plan in this forum topic: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/change-home-snap-to-snap/1827 -- 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
