Bug Summary

Title.
Floorp creates a new, empty folder at $HOME called "Floorp".
$HOME/Floorp (~/Floorp)

Reproduction Steps

1. Open Floorp

Expected Behavior

Do not create the folder!

Actual Behavior

Creates the folder

Screenshots

Browser Version

12.10.2@147.0 (64-bit)

Operating System

Linux Mint 22.3 "Zena" Cinnamon

Additional Context

Shouldn't Floorp also follow the Freedesktop.org XDG Base Directory Specification like Firefox 147.0 does?

Edit: I've confirmed, that after downgrading to version 12.10.1~build1 with

sudo apt install floorp=12.10.1~build1

it doesn't create the directory anymore.

I am seeing the same behavior after the update.

[tnuukav]

Same problem (same version 12.10.2@147.0)

[Icedwolf]

Same problem using floorp-bin 12.10.2-1 from cachyos repo

[priscira]

Same problem on Fedora.

[notjiatan]

Same problem in NixOS, I presume this is distro agnostic

[Megalodonix]

Same problem on Arch Linux (floorp-bin on AUR)

[arisumag]

Same issue with floorp-bin from the AUR.

[GoustiFruit]

Same for me. Empty folder, not even hidden files in it. I keep deleting it, it keeps coming back.

Likewise bug on Arch - floorp-bin, in the AUR.
Empty 'Floorp' directory generated at $HOME.

[NBA2K1]

I have just switched back to Firefox.

Floorp has gotten kind of buggy for me anyways. And cluttering my Home folder was the last straw.

I believe this is an upstream issue. Please update to the latest version.

[venatus9]

This bug appears to still be present on v12.10.3 - the current latest version as of now.

[NBA2K1]

I believe this is an upstream issue. Please update to the latest version.

Don't have this issue with Firefox. Firefox is the upstream of Floorp, right?

I am having the same issue, using floorp-bin on CachyOS installed from AUR.
