A significant portion of people dump everything on their desktop.
But parent is right. Nobody is out here maintaining and pruning their beautiful directory hierarchy, and complaining about how messy applications make their home directory. Because nobody turns on “show hidden files”. Nobody cares.
- smaudet 4y agoNobody is maintaining file hierachies, but everyone manages files, folders, whether they are explicitly exposed via file manager or not. These are organizational concepts, not software concepts. People, even mobile uni students, have and must master them. As a result they get reinvented constantly in/as apps. What people are mad about is people are told 'this is how you will organize' rather than just learning to organize. It is absolutely fucking stupid.
