would anybody know if user's '.local' folder, its path & name are configurable in some way? Perhaps by a var or/and os-wide configs?
Maybe not, but nothing stops you making it, or particular things inside it, symlinks to better locations. My local machine:
[~]fleet2*> ls -ld .local drwxr-xr-x 3 cameron cameron 96 27 Jun 2020 .local [~]fleet2*> L .local/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 cameron cameron 96 27 Jun 2020 . drwxr-sr-x+ 223 cameron cameron 7136 16 Jul 08:22 .. drwxr-xr-x 5 cameron cameron 160 26 Jul 2021 share [~]fleet2*> L .local/share total 0 drwxr-xr-x 5 cameron cameron 160 26 Jul 2021 . drwxr-xr-x 3 cameron cameron 96 27 Jun 2020 .. drwxr-xr-x 3 cameron cameron 96 27 Jun 2020 direnv drwx------ 4 cameron cameron 128 26 Jul 2021 fish lrwxrwxr-x 1 cameron cameron 12 14 Aug 2020 vt -> ../../var/vt
I keep a lot of things in ~/var, a lot of configs in ~/rc, yea, even to the point of:
[~]fleet2*> ls -ld .config lrwxrwxr-x 1 cameron staff 2 11 May 2017 .config -> rc
and machine specific configs in ~/rc-local.
