Based on @dgelessus astute comment that
appdirs
has been effectively superseded byplatformdirs
in the python ecosystem, this PR updates the OS-native data directory implementation in #777 from usingappdirs
toplatformdirs
.platformdirs
explicitly advertises itself as a drop-in replacement forappdirs
by even aliasingplatformdirs.PlatformDirs
toplatformdirs.AppDirs
.Additionally,
platformdirs
goes the extra step and provides APIs that returnpathlib.Path
objects directly.PR Checklist:
