Apparently, Prism Launcher chose to adhere to the idiotic principle of the hidden “trashbin”, .Trash-$(uid), invented by Ubuntu. Even though it’s based on QT. This can’t be disabled. It accumulated 139 GB of literal Trash, fully replaceable, over time. Just … why? There’s even an open issue about this, for over a year, referenced multiple times. I guess I have another point on my agenda.
Doesn’t people use a disk usage scanner every once in a while to find out if there’s something hogging space?
I do, except I always used du -hs *, which does not include hidden (.-Prefixed) files. So a double trap.
shopt -s dotglobwill make*include .dotfiles.
