for example, for every distrobox I like to give it it's own HOME dir, but if I just ssh into the PC regularly, then the HOME dir will be my own HOME dir, and vscode will use that dir for config and extensions and stuff
oh I made that issue a while ago, vanillaOS was doing something similar with integrating the updater into Gnome settings. IIRC Gnome has a built in framework for doing so? If it requires patching of KDE settings it may not be worth pursuing
