user133836: According to Bitcoin-QT (I am using the snap store version) my Datadir is
/home/(username)/snap/bitcoin-core/common/.bitcoin
and my Blocksdir is
home/(username)/snap/bitcoin-core/common/.bitcoin/blocks.
However, when I navigate to home/(username)/snap/bitcoin-core/common the directory appears to be empty. Are the files hidden or something?
I ask because I need to move that stuff over to an external drive and point Bitcoin-QT to look for it there.
Also, when I go into settings and click "open configuration file" nothing happens.
When it's open Bitcoin-QT just starts syncing away. It's working fine. But I can't figure out where the data is going! Help much appreciated.

user132738: In linux files and directories that start with a dot(.) are hidden by default. Inside ‘ home/(username)/snap/bitcoin-core/common’ try using ‘ls -la’ and you should be able to list hidden files or directories, in this case ‘.bitcoin’, hope this help!
