Hi John,

I think the mentioned dirs are created at user login by
/usr/bin/xdg-user-dirs-update
executed from /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60xdg-user-dirs-update

Have a look in /etc/xdg/user-dirs.conf and try setting
XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR=""
or perhaps
enabled=False

or changing content of the following for each individual user:
~/.config/user-dirs.dirs

I hope this helps.

cheers!
