Files and directories starting with a dot are hiden by default. You are aksing for this stuff if you manually unhide them.
Screenshot is from Windows where dotfiles aren't hidden by default. And all the lazy developers that created those directories, didn't bother to set the hidden attribute (See appdata is greyed, because it has the hidden attribute set)
To be fair, those Windows directories might have a space in them and break things anyway.
Directories can have spaces in their name on other platforms too. On Linux, you can set the XDG environment variables to whatever you want, so eg. instead of using
~/.configfor config files, you could use~/My Config FilesIs it a good idea? No. Should every well-behaved app handle it? Definitely.
Ya, I'm just joking about apps, or especially scripts, not handling it properly.
There are a million reasons to access those folders. There are 0 reasons to leave them hidden.
only if you are a power user. for most people its just clutter in the way of the files they are looking for.
