Configuration Files on $XDG_CONFIG_HOME instead of HOME #151

Hi

While using a port of Dooble for ArcaOS I noticed that the Dooble configuration files are being stored directly at HOME (like /HOME/.dooble) and not at the configuration directory ( Like /HOME/.config/.dooble). Asking around I was pointed that the configuration directory is commonly referred as "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME"
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

The fallback is that changing this on a existing installation of Dooble will mean that users will have to move their files to a new location by hand.

This is just a suggestion and is it up to the developer to take the decision. This is not mandatory, maybe it is just my OCD.

Regards
