    honestly - while a Mac is certainly less painful to use than winshit, putting rubbish files recursively into each(!!) accessed folder, on all thumbdrives ever inserted, that’s something Jobs deserves to burn in hell for.

      You’d want that, but a lot of programs do that, both in Windows and Linux.

      e.g. The .directory files with the [Desktop Entry] spec by freedesktop.org
      Dolphin has the option to enable/disable the feature

        the macos file browser, Finder, lets you set a background for a folder, move file icons around to arbitrary positions, other shenanigans. in order for this to work across systems on removable storage media and network mounts, they have this.

            I don’t think the code is available for people to figure out whether there’s a reason or if it’s completely arbitrary.

    Hmm… Smells like a windows user aswell… Look at that:

    .desktop desktop.ini

    Edit: fixed the filename

    you should do this with every one of these cases. btw, where does .Trash-1000 actually come from?

      I had a long and frustrating conflict with this, on this post.

      As @d_k_bo@feddit.org (An dem Punkt könnten wir auch einfach Deutsch labern) noted, it’s a freedesktop.org specification.

      I still stand the point that it’s not very thought through (a hidden dir? Why?), and that blindly implementing it is annoying. It shouldn’t be a universal standard for all systems, as it’s only relevant if you use a file manager which can then use that dir as Trash dir - which I don’t. That could be tested by only allowing filemanagers to create the dir, and if it doesn’t exist, discard the data. That’s probably how some programs work, as only Prismlauncher has created the dir.

      Workaround: ln -s .Trash-1000 /dev/null
