"As was repeated many times in this thread, the files inside ~/snap must *not* be hidden. Those are going to be music files, documents, pictures, which strict snaps want to make available. That's not content that should go unperceived no matter how your culture looks like."
That's not true. I had no idea what "snap" was in this context, until I found a snap folder in my source control repository, and had to find out what it was. And what's in mine? A single subfolder called "gnome- system-monitor". I'm pretty sure that isn't a music file, or a document, or a picture, or anything else that I'll ever want to look at (or keep under version control). Sure, it's easy enough to add to run "echo snap >> ~/.hidden"... and to alias ls to ls -Isnap ... and to add snap to .gitignore ... and to .hgignore ... and to revert the latest changes to git and mercurial (provided I haven't pushed it anywhere, which fortunately I hadn't). But it's a right pain in the derriere. :) -- 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 [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
