How to handle application storage in rust? (lemmy.one)

I want to build a small gui application in rust. What are my options for application storage? I have heard of the confi crate but I want to save a bit more than just configuration. Is there a crate that handles this for me easily?

For Linux, here is the spec: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html

macOS has the NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains API.

For Windows, there’s also an API for that, but I don’t know it offhand.
