Flatpak doesn't conform to the XDG home directory, and that upsets me. Also we have an ongoing dispute between SI and IEC units on their GitHub. But I like it otherwise.
The way the flatpak devs responded to the xdg base dir request made me not ever going to use flatpak again, fuck them.
What did they say?

https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/46
There are other interesting ones here:

The one for steam turned into a bunch of memes because steam hasn't even acknowledge it lol.

Oh, no, it's Patrick (tingping). He is very stubborn and doesn't listen to reason. https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5504
I really wished that he didn't participate in the XDG problem, but he did. Then the IEC issue is probably also be screwed in the end.
I didn't know flatpak was using MB instead of MiB, ever since I moved to linux most apps I've used report MiB instead.
Edit: I checked my CLI tools because the guy said that CLI tools are all over the place, the only one that doesn't use MiB is lf.
Edit2: I lost my shit when I checked the profile of patrick and the first thing in the description says gnome developer, holy shit this can't be lmao.
