Current problem

appdirs is effectively unmaintained; platformdirs is the community's forked replacement. Black has already switched, and given this dep was newly added, it would make sense to use the modern, maintained replacement now given its drop-in compatible and fixes numerous long-outstanding bugs with the original, instead of having to switch later if and when things eventually break.

Desired solution

Migration to platformdirs.
