    Work! I was slacking all week but today I am in the mood for some work. And the project is almost finished too. And I actually like what I do.

        Are you in the mood to listen to some narrowly-specialized rumblings? Ok, I’m creating the daemon (this way in Linux we call a program that doesn’t print anything on screen and doesn’t read anything from the keyboard, “background” program), which will monitor who exactly creates files in some particular user-defined directories. Sometimes those files take dozens of GiB, and the user just can’t determine if those files can be deleted without any harm because the user doesn’t know who actually made them. So some temporary files or configs from long ago uninstalled programs can lie in the home dir for years.

        Main work is done. Looks like it works. So only polishing/testing/publishing is left.

          Hah, my solution for the ever growing “.config” and “.local” was to distro hop lol. Meh, not really, but I was a linux noobie, and I always raise an eyebrow when I find a flatpak or other nonsense I installed some 2 years ago lying around there… Yikes!
