In theory this issue can be solved with LD_PRELOAD trick. E.g. redirect all/most/some
fopen
calls to "$HOME" to some other directory. But before I try to tackle it myself: is there already a similar solution like that?You could probably do it with bubblewrap or something equivalent. Here's someone asking about this exact thing:

I do it with Bubblejail for Steam and a symlink to .local/share/Steam for compatibility with tools.
