i know the way android stores application config and so on makes it almost imposible to keep a real functioning dotfiles. but what is the closest you can get? is there a way to at least get a declarative list of apps to install or something? maybe some f-droid config at least or something?
i’ve never heard of anyone using dotfiles in any other way, even thought yeah a hidden file/directory is a dotfile, people discuss much more in the way i mention it because it implies a lot more stuff. i agree with the other comment that when you refer to the individual file people call them hidden files, nautilus and other file managers do this. i guess my reply wasn’t the best but i thought they were being smug about it.
