📄 Description

Add the following files, which may be used to configure X clients:

~/.Xdefaults
~/.Xdefaults-* (~/.Xdefaults-$(hostname))
~/.Xresources

And block the following paths, which are intended for the X server:

~/.local/share/xorg (rootless Xorg log directory)
/etc/X11/xinit
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
/var/log/Xorg.* (default Xorg log path)

Note: ~/.Xdefaults is read directly by each application when it starts,
while ~/.Xresources is loaded once into the X root window with xrdb(1)
when starting the session, such as by a DE or directly in ~/.xinitrc.
Both use the same format and it appears that users are encouraged to use
~/.Xresources instead of ~/.Xdefaults but applications still try to read
~/.Xdefaults if it exists.

From xrdb(1):

FILES
Xrdb does not load any files on its own, but many desktop
environments use xrdb to load ~/.Xresources files on session
startup to initialize the resource database, as a generalized
replacement for ~/.Xdefaults files.

See X(1), Xorg(1), xinit(1) and xrdb(1).
