Same. I’ve relinquished control over all the OS-provided directories to Adobe and Microsoft and go and whatever else assumes I want its crap in those locations.

Above someone jokes about just putting everything in Desktop, but honestly, it’s what realistically winds up happening. I can’t be bothered to manage files myself, really.

I’m just not in any way geared to be a file clerk or self librarian. Fortunately I have a machine that is very good at those things
