    Here’s how to fix this[+]

    Create $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs with

    XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR=“$HOME/downloads”

    You may need to logout/in for things to reread this file.

    The full list of keys is:

    • XDG_DESKTOP_DIR
    • XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR
    • XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR
    • XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR
    • XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR
    • XDG_MUSIC_DIR
    • XDG_PICTURES_DIR
    • XDG_VIDEOS_DIR

    +: Since this is Linux, this is a fix for many but not all cases.
