My HR department was very concerned that I had a folder called fixed ssls on my desktop and another called fucked ssls

"my project", "my project two", "new project", "branch of my project", "my project returns", "my project forever", "my project reloaded", "my project revolutions", "my project is dead" "my project 2" <--- the tenth installment of my project

This one right here.

I've finally started naming shit year-month-day-project-name.V.XX.ext and it's been WOOOOO much better...turns out, when I think, I'll remember why I named it this way, I'm always lying.

I'm the best liar I've ever met.

I’m more of a “more crap” and “Copy (4) of New Folder” kind of guy.

[–] Graphy@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

My desktop has a folder called “crap” where when my desktop starts to look cluttered I drag everything into a new folder then put that into the crap folder.

Going through the crap folder is like digging through sedimentary layers of dead shortcuts.lnk and .txt files to get a glimse of the past

I have something similar: a "garbage" folder in my downloads folder, and when I tire of the clutter I put all of it, including "garbage", into a new "garbage" folder. It's garbage all the way down.

I have a separate download folder as a dump. It's now at 550GB

[–] phantomwise@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I have a "Unsorted-NEW" and "Unsorted-OLD". When everything is too cluttered I rename "Unsorted-NEW" to "Unsorted-Number" and move it to "Unsorted-OLD" along with the previous iterations. Then I make a new "Unsorted-NEW" and put the clutter in it. Which I'm totally going to sort and not just leave there and forget about it until everything's too cluttered again...

...

... ... ... that actually made more sense before I tried to explain 😓

I'm more of a tmp, tmp1, tmp2, tmp3 type of person

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 3 points 2 weeks ago

No way!

Mine are foo, foo2, foo3, etc. Totally different, see? 😜

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

[–] Crankenstein@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

My folder system usually goes "[Topic] Stuff" with a miscellaneous folder named "And Things"

I clean up my filesystem when I should be doing work so that everything is organised when I I start working an hour before it's due. This way I only have to deal with an hour of panicked mess.

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 6 points 2 weeks ago

Im the type to have an important folder, an archive in that folder, a misc folder, another archive folder, a backup folder and ANOTHER archive folder

Autism: "I need structure and planning in order to function" ADHD: "Yeah okay let's bring some structure and... wait did we respond to that message from yesterday? Oh look we still need to wash the dishes, let's grab... oh what's this plate doing here, let's put it back. Wait what were we doing again?"

I literally can't work until it's like the top picture

I just name folders with numbers and call searching for files in them (that are not named either) future me's problem. Knowing they're there somewhere is good enough.
