according to https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html the default directory for user configurations should be placed under $HOME/.config (unless specified otherwise) instead of a hidder folder or file in $HOME. I guess this was agreed upon, becaues people didn't like the ever growing dotfile mess that is cluttering more and more in the home directory. At least that is why I prever $HOME/.config over hidden file in $HOME.
