How to ignore home dir dotfiles and Library

[rosmur]

The ~/Library and dotfiles in the home dir constantly slow down fzf (using fd) and pollute the results. Its very noisy in general.

I havent figured out a way to ignore these by default in zshrc.

Things I've tried

export FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND="fd --type f --exclude '.*' --exclude \"$HOME/Library\"" - Does not ignore the ~/Library folder

export FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND="fd --type f --exclude '.*' --exclude Library". Works but ignores all dotfiles and Library folders regardless of where you are, not just the ~/Library

Tried

$HOME/.* $HOME/Library

in .fdignore. Did not work.

I feel like I am missing something basic - surely this is a basic use case that has been addressed already?

I think this issue is more likely related to sharkdp/fd itself.
And it looks like the feature you mentioned is awaiting merge.
sharkdp/fd#1752
