Yofi isn't finding Flatpak .desktop files

XDG_DATA_DIRS is set to /usr/local/share /usr/share $HOME/.local/share/ $HOME//.local/share/flatpak/exports/share, but Yofi isn't finding their desktop files.

XDG_DATA_DIRS directories should be separated with a colon (:), not a space¹.

P.S. $HOME/.local/share/ directory implies from empty XDG_DATA_HOME; adding it to XDG_DATA_DIRS makes yofi traverse it twice (entries are still de-duplicated, but that's a useless work anyway).

Right you are. I'm using fish, so I just assumed it would be handled the same as PATH. Thanks.
