Store application data in a meaningful location (GNU/Linux)

Open reitzig opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

My Setup

  • Operating System: Ubuntu 16.04
  • App Version: 2.10.1
  • [x] I have tested with the latest version
  • [x] I can simulate the issue easily

Description

Backing up my ~/.config folder, I noticed a huge bloat beyond what config files should cause. Turns out Rocket.Chat stores over 100MB of data in .config/Rocket.Chat+, the bulk of it in subfolder Cache.

Current Behavior

Rocket.Chat stores all app data in .config.

Expected Behavior

Rocket.Chat adheres to GNU/Linux conventions and stores application data in /home/user/.rocketchat and caches in /home/user/.cache.
