From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi. I recently published my app on Flathub and have been steadily updating it to make it better.

With it you can download Music from Youtube and tag it to create a beautiful collection of local Music. Check it out: https://flathub.org/apps/net.fhannenheim.musicfetch

Hmm. You can set the Download directory in the settings, by clicking on the settings button on the top left.

I didn't anticipate Localized Music directory names

You should check the XDG_MUSIC_DIR environment variable. Most distros have it as a path to the users music folder.

It doesn't seem to be set in the Flatpak container. Also .config/user-dirs.dirs is inaccessible.

I'll probably have to request access to that file

Okay I've now pushed an update that fixes this issue.
