Do you have a ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file and is there anything set for XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR
That was the problem! (Well, for downloading files, anyway)
I have no idea how it got this way, but here's what it was set to:
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/"
Keep in mind, my downloads folder has been configured in its current state (~/Downloads
as a symlink) for about two years and no other programs seem to have any issues. Correcting it:
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads"
... fixed the issue. I'm sorry, I didn't even think to check that; thank you!
