    Y’know what’s worse? When there’s no dot. Worse than that, it’s an undotted directory used to store a single config file. Ugh, unpleasant memories. 😒

        That’s not the only folder go creates. There’s also ~/sdks/go1.xy

          Oh god, what? Is that new? Aside from the plethora of shit that are dotfiles living in ~ instead of under ~/.config, the only outlier I have at the moment is ~/go.

        That’s just the default location for what it’s worth. You can move GOPATH wherever you want.

      There’s a version control system called darcs that stores its configuration files in a _darcs/ directory in your project and it wounds my soul.
