I take the same approach a forest takes: optimizing for regular “forest fires” to clear out the old. I start with the year: Eg. 2018 Then I break it into - Projects - photos - personal - etc... Then each year I start a new folder Eg. 2019. I only bring in Projects I’m still working on. This method is not optomized for searching, but rather for destruction of what is no longer needed. I find this the best thing to optimize for.
