Do you keep everything in “downloads” or have file trees 100 folders deep?

    Organizing is one thing but it’s better to reduce your brainpower-spending regardless of what you do.

    On Windows? Custom iconed folders and explorer bookmarks go a long way. Better than relying on Quick Access or whatever.

    On desktop Linux? Tools like fd and zoxide (z) save you as long as your directory names are consistent. Sticking to names-like-this reduces guesswork and you can skip around in seconds. (Saved me many a due date.)

    On Android, consult Indiana Jones. Your files are a treasure – they’re staying hidden

      Android at least has this neat app named TagSpaces… but yeah I really hate how the entire filesystem is basically Windows’ “Documents” folder: Various apps just dump things wherever the heck they please!

      Edit: Thanks for mentioning those really cool Linux tools!!
