that's right! it goes in the DOWNLOADS folder
@thermia it takes .784 seconds to ls downloads on my phone ​
@thermia 3720 files

@tay ohh yeah okay you have it beat there

❯ ls -1 Downloads/ | wc -l 1059

@thermia my downloads folder is only 18GB
@tay wow, could not be thermia ​

thermias has shrunk in size since it removed a bunch of 50~ GB movies that were lying around
@thermia ah, that is an effective methods for freeing up disk space
@tay @thermia Meanwhile I'm over here like

ll Downloads/ | wc -l
24
@Ollie @thermia very clean! Impressive ​
@tay @thermia Thanks! I try to keep it clean, unlike my phone gallery, which is distributed across 3 devices and some of it was lost due to a distro-hop that I forgot to backup beforehand.
@tay @thermia I've actually been trying to figure out how to do my projects folder for a while, some things are hard to categorize, and also I have to make sure my stuff isn't too nested because that can be hard to navigate.

I keep a
~/Projects folder and this is what I have in it as far as root level folders are concerned. The recordings folder is just a dump of voice recordings from my phone because I was cleaning my phone out before a flight.
@tay @thermia I typically use the media directories like Documents, Video, Music, and Pictures for completed things that will likely never be touched again, and mostly for other people's stuff not my own.

Although Documents is kind of an exception cause I have a lot of notes and stuff in there.
@Ollie @tay thermia has FL studio bundle things together under the project folder (named after the date when it was created + some string that may or may not describe the project, usually the string is just "gorp"), and then when thermia pulls in a sample or something, it gets copied to the projects folder

but that's just for music stuff. after effect projects are everywhere, and programming projects too

@Ollie @tay

❯ ls -1 | grep gorp | wc -l 21 ​

@thermia @tay I have a lot of random music projects on my nas but this is just stuff I have pulled down, 2 unpublished songs and a cool synth patch in an ardour project lol.
@thermia @tay well the last one is published but only on fedi cause I haven't gotten around to making the cover art yet.
@Ollie @tay @thermia one gigantic zip file per year, yeah?
@f4grx @tay @thermia lol, I just clean out my downloads about every month or two, and I don't use it for anything other than where firefox dumps downloads by default.
@thermia @tay those go in the "torrents" folder, though

@thermia @tay

You make me feel virtuous.
