## Placement

- Flatpak: `~/.var/app/im.riot.Riot/config/Riot/config.json`
  or `~/.var/app/im.riot.Riot/config/Element-PROFILENAMEHERE/config.json`
- Linux outside of flatpak: `~/.config/Element/config.json` or `~/.config/Element-PROFILENAMEHERE/config.json`
  - failing that it appears to also read `~/.config/Riot/*` should that exist.
- Windows: `%APPDATA%\Element\config.json` or youcan figure out the profile
  name if you use Windows.
