Are you using windows? I feel like dotfiles are much more common on unix-like systems. For me I've got dotfiles for zhs, ssh, git, two for my window manager, vim, and much more. I've even got one for nethack. I quite like it, I get new laptops up and running and feeling like home in a matter of minutes.

Yes windows. That’s my point: dotfiles are synonymous with ”configuration files” on Linux/Unix but not elsewhere so making a ”cross platform dotfiles manager” seems like a contradiction almost.
Even windows, MS made stuff has dotfiles.
