Where Joplin keeps its logs

Joplin logs to %APPDATA%\Joplin\log.txt on Windows.

Joplin logs to ~/.config/joplin-desktop/log.txt on Linux.

Paths are printed exactly as Joplin writes them. Environment variables like %LOCALAPPDATA% and $XDG_STATE_HOME are never expanded, so a path can be pasted straight into a shell. Where a path differs between installer types or shipping flavours, each one is racked as its own card below - why that happens.
