Dotfiles feel too intimate and personal to share (hamatti.org)

I was kind of surprised to see this article on HackerNews, so I thought I'd ask here; how do you handle your dotfiles and do you share them publicly?

My own dotfiles started from those provided by ArcoLinux, with a bunch of changes over the years I had them. Currently installed using Ansible, because that's more sensible than Bash for this imo.

I share my dotfiles, I don't see anything intimate or personal in there. I share them because other Linux enthusiasts have asked about what to use or how I config it.

It's in my GitHub but what I don't do is share my GitHub publicly, mostly cause it links me from my shit posting social media where I'm too open about things, into the work and irl landscape.

I like to keep those things separate.
