I suppose I shouldn't be surprised to see this pop up about two weeks after there was no response to this reply on #47: Support for using ~/.config on Mac for command line apps on directories-rs:
- "directories" crate version 4.0.0 broken on MacOS

Seeking input on wallpaper utility
Annoyingly enough, while you claim to use XDG_CONFIG_HOME, you're only using $HOME/.config which is what it defaults to but not what the user might have set. Use os.Getenv("XDG_CONFIG_HOME") or similar functions to get the directory that the user have actually set to. You could also just use this package

Generic path to Documents folder for every user?
Perhaps use packages like https://github.com/adrg/xdg, that do the magic also for all operating systems.
