(#yfko2ya) I wonder if I should regularly wipe `XDG_STATE_HOME` just like I do with `XDG_CACHE_HOME`. So far, only wireplumber appears in this directory β¦ Hm β¦

My `XDG_STATE_HOME` directory doesn't even exist, no program has created it.

I don't believe it's a good idea to wipe it.
$ cat /etc/fstab
...
swap /home/adi/var/cache mfs rw,-s512M,noatime,nosuid,nodev 1 0
and for `XDG_CACHE_HOME`.

Hmm, that list sounds just like the sort of thing that I'd want wiped. π Probably a matter of personal taste.
By βwipingβ, I mean mounting it as tmpfs / mfs. (Deleting that directory during runtime is probably a very bad idea, yeah.)
