The number is 139 for me. This is primarily due to some programs not adhereing to the XDG_CONFIG standards and dumping their config files in the home directory.
All configuration files should be in the ~/.config directory. If only developers made programs that adhere to this guideline.
How do you suggest I manage the files dumped on my home dir due to this annoyance?

It's frustrating, how some developers completely ignore this standard.
For some programs, you can manually set config/cache directories in
~/.profileFor example, for
zshyou can setZDOTDIRNot a general solution but better than nothing. I may write a post about it after some research.
That'd be great :)
