Did you know most file managers on Linux support a ".hidden" file in your home directory? It works pretty much as gitignore does: it hides everything that you list in this file, one file/dir per line. https://fosspost.org/tutorials/hide-files-folders-linux-file-manager

This… is… AWESOME. I had no idea about .hidden. This way I can de-clutter my $HOME polluted by a shiton of programs not caring about XDG Base Directory Specification.
