           Summary: Koko takes an extremely long time to launch

SUMMARY
When I launch Koko it takes many minutes to launch. In the console I get
spammed with inotify errors as I watch Koko attempt to watch every file in my
home directory. (FWIW I have no "Pictures" folder in my home dir)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Koko
2. Wait

OBSERVED RESULT
First line in console is `("/home/jack/")`
Then I get spammed with this:

kf.coreaddons.kdirwatch: inotify failed for monitoring
"/home/jack/Dev/KDE6/usr/lib64/cmake/packagekitqt6" 
 Because it reached its max_user_watches,
 you can increase the maximum number of file watches per user,
 by setting an appropriate fs.inotify.max_user_watches parameter in your
/etc/sysctl.conf
inotify_add_watch(/home/jack/Dev/KDE6/usr/lib64/cmake/packagekitqt6) failed:
(No space left on device)

after a few minutes the Koko window appears

EXPECTED RESULT
Koko launches immediately
