    There is a .local folder these days.

    Profile roaming hasn’t been solved aside from NFS mounts. I guess Syncthing might work.

      I know .local exists - My comment was more about .roaming which would be nice to exist, but doesn’t currently exist.

      I’m using Chezmoi to sync some dotfiles, scripts, etc. to a Git repo and that seems to work well enough for me. I’m not syncing much yet, though.
