-_Note: this directory is also being used as `~/.local/share/applications`
-which populates the app menu, my autostart is thankfully not this

- redshift - app that changes screen temperature along the sun
- telegramdesktop - IM app, based on telegram-desktop package
- com.wire.WireDesktop - Wire flatpak based on the flatpak of the same name

-These files belong to `/usr/local/share/applications` and are named so to
-avoid masking package manager. They have clearly different names such as using
-all caps. To refresh them:

+# `.desktop` entries

+These can be used for many things such as

+- `~/.local/share/applications` (graphical desktop environments populate app
+  menu from here)
+- `~/.config/autostart` (graphical desktop environments read user autostarts
+  here)
+- `/usr/local/share/applications` (global version of above)
