@sodiboo@gaysex.cloud my system is very convoluted, and i'm thinking about simplifying it... soooo, first of all, i have a bunch of year folders in ~/ (technically all still in /mnt/c/Users/user/OneDrive/). starting from ~/dz2018/ to ~/dz2025/. they contain study related things, from each pair of semesters. there is ~/Programs/ for cloned repositories, ~/Games/ for game installs, ~/Downloads/ for downloads i haven't moved yet. i would theoretically lose nothing from deleting those. they can all be redownloaded. there is also ~/dz20xx/repos for my repositories on git.gay (all very tiny). this is the only folder in ~/dz20xx/ ._. there is also ~/Desktop/memes which is a big git repo with personal non-code stuff, like my diary, anime screenshots, and sometimes actual memes. Desktop only contains 2 more folders: ~/Desktop/diffpatch (for stuff that's important, but don't belong anywhere) and ~/Desktop/OrphanedProjects which is one big repo for programming projects that didn't get their own folders years ago. there is also /mnt/d/ which was originally the home for things to big to store on the main drive, and now it's kind of a mess.

  • @green@mk.absturztau.be @sodiboo@gaysex.cloud my stars lmao I have ~/Projects/$LANG/ for projects written primarily in $LANG, ~/Repos/ for cloned repos, and ~/Downloads/ for anything downloaded by a browser or torrent client or whatnot. Everything else is shoved at random to places like ~/Documents or ~/.
