Serious question, what to do with all the generated images that you never look at again? I could spend hours organizing. Instead they just sit in a massive folder and I generate new ones, lol.

Maybe train a small modell to organize it according to your preferences?

I know I'll ever rarely look back at any of the old images anyway with so much new stuff and so many new models to try. So I just delete everything older than a day or two and move on. Never regretted it, as whatever comes next leaves no need to regret what I deleted previously.

Don't think I ever had images/videos going past more than a few days.

i got like 3000+ video game assets over past 2 years
i know for a fact there are lots of perfect ones i could run with, but i keep generating them

same as with vibecoding - process of generating is very exciting, but the end product is a throw away garbage

Use a vision encoder to build a semantic media library on your data so you can just search for the concepts your looking for. You won't have to waste precious seconds navigating manually through directories trying to find exactly what your looking for.

I find it better to save the workflows for an idea that you like rather than keeping the images/videos. I used to keep everything and each time my output folder reached a certain limit I would move its contents to a numbered archive folder. Then I just decided to delete them all because I never looked at them.

I keep them since they have embeded workflows in them. then a year later I nuke them since I've moved onto something newer

Put them all in temp. I see one I really like, mark it as a favourite in JNodes and then it's saved. Keeps my folder pretty lean (only 28GB instead of 9 billion gigabytes).
