folders is inherently a bad idea
(lemmy.sdf.org)
am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?
We’ve been played for absolute fools.
Wait, I've got it: what if we put every file in one folder, and then hard-link the files we need higgildy-piggildy all over the place!
We can call it WinSxS!
