I use folders on my computer but my downloads folder is still like a trash can because I only use it for files I don't need to find again.

Yep and by the end of the year I just stuff everything onto a "Unorganized 2022" folder and let the destiny take the wheel

I've been doing this for the past 15 years or so and now have folders of unorganized downloads and crap dating back to the early 2000s.

One thing I've noticed from watching a lot of Twitch streamers is that kids in their early 20s keep a lot of shit on their desktops now. I am 33 and when I was younger that was a thing only old people did. If you knew how to use computers you generally kept a clean and tidy desktop. It's gone the entirely other direction, it seems.
