This is roughly a migration of the issue on the old repository. To summarize:
~/Library/Application Support
:There was also some discussion of using ~/.config/ like on linux, as several popular CLI apps on Mac use this directory (neovim is mentioned, checking my .config I see neofetch as well). I don't think this is appropriate, since many more use ~/Library/Application Support (checking my mac, Firefox Inkscape llvmenv iTerm2 and Audacity are all examples which use it, usually with some kind of CLI)
So, I'm hoping that this can be resolved by changing the directory to
~Library/Application Support
