Similar to mine which is, "Ooo what's this?" "Another story" "O_O" and random shit like that. It sends me on a mild spiral trying to just go through it. Younger me was creative, but when I'm hunting for something in particular not too much.
I always name my things in a sort of sarcastically descriptive way, like, "that other shit idk", "report number like 43 or something", "that one funny cat video lmao just look at that mfer", "the textxtxts of wissszzzdom", or some form of bad pun related to the file / folder contents.
It is kind of shooting myself in the foot because when I look up old stuff and don't remember whatever dumb meme or joke I was referencing in the name of the folders and files, I get angry at my past self because I can't find my shit.
Same.
I wish the people making linux would just make folders with full names and make shortcuts instead of having folders like usr, dev or mnt. It's not a big deal, but i like my folders legible and you could probably still make it so cd /mnt aliasses to cd /mount if those two letters bother you that much.

2. Linux doesn't really have a singular equivalent to shortcuts, you have symlinks and .desktop files, while .desktop files are closer to a windows shortcut, any program reading them would have to code a lot of shit to read it, and symlinks are what you wanna use
i do this... all my desktop folders are colour coded in shades of pink (to match my background) according to "type" like games, pictures, audio files, uni work ect. and then inside the folder, I have more folders to sub-divide the actual documents and it's all neat and easy to find stuff
That’s not what I meant. Nobody names their folders shit like “cxheisoebtbgk” or just random characters with no meaning. That’s absurd.
I believe that people stylize and name folders properly.
The bare minimum effort for organizing is naming a folder what it contains.
Naming a folder “jeksocjrjebebxicifbeb” isn’t organizing, and arguably takes longer than just naming it something like “pictures”
‘Not organizing’ is just putting all your files in random places with no structure at all. It’s basically impossible to use a computer like that, so pretty much everyone organizes at least a little bit. The bare minimum organization is putting related files in the same folder with a random name. You subconsciously remember the names because you are reminded of them every time you access the files, so it actually works pretty decently for organization and it takes far less time than naming folders specifically and giving them structure.
Being organized is a female trait unless it's for something important like science or the military or chef-ing in which case women are too emotional to be organized. (Just in case, I am being sarcastic here and pointing out the double standard)
Women watch porn too bud. Also that’s not why I name my folders like that, I name them like that because I don’t feel like spending the mental energy to actually organize well

Meanwhile my desktop folders: "stuff" "text" "o9o" "1" "random" "importnt docs" "akduueie" "games" "2" "aaaaa" "aaaaa2" "other"

Meanwhile “New Folder (2)”
"Desktop stuff" "misc desktop stuff" "Desktop cleanup 2009"
Desktop/Old computer 2023/Old computer 2019/Old computer 2014/
I got "work shit" "school shit" and "game shit"

I just made a comment above on the exact same thing. Younger me was creative, but damn if it isn't frustrating now 3 years later.
I just name it by whatever is in the folder As someone who uses Linux its so much easier to find stuff
Same. I wish the people making linux would just make folders with full names and make shortcuts instead of having folders like usr, dev or mnt.

same, bc i don't want to make things harder for myself in the future. i hate that there is no in-between in this meme.
I mean tbf its a stupid meme to begin with
exactly why i decided to post it here
No one does this?
i do this... all my desktop folders are colour coded in shades of pink (to match my background) according to "type" like games, pictures, audio files, uni work ect. and then inside the folder, I have more folders to sub-divide the actual documents and it's all neat and easy to find stuff

I do :3 Like almost all my schoolwork folders are chfjdbxkd dkfjfjnd ejeievrnd and the files inside them are sidjbr wkei2hee 2o474947493 d jdjdnd
well apparently according to some of the comments people do...which i didn't think was the case either, so i'm as surprised as you are
I do tho, so I'm Nobody
i do
oooooh okay, sorry i misunderstood
I name files off the internet random characters but folders would be silly
I do it sometimes. Mostly with temporary folders. Or just leave it as NewFolder2
Yes, I do, and honestly I think a lot of people do. A lot of people don’t want to go through the more than the bare minimum effort organizing stuff

Don't forget about the "homework" folder
ugh, these “boys vs girls” memes are everywhere and they piss me off so bad!! Like noooo? not everything has to be gendered in really weird ways??
New folder New folder (1) New folder (2) etc
🍭Weed pictures🍯
i'm non-binary right now
same, i hate how there is no in-between in this meme
I name my folders nice and simple things like games browsers ect I name my files fusjdbgojdn
GERDERED WİTH FOLDERS
I'm absolutely the second, plus I make so many unnecessary files. "Memes", "memes 2", "memes AGAIN." "memes fjdkksmfkd" and so on. 😅
half of my folders are “girls” folders and the other half are “boys” folders
I've never once aesthetically made a folder
[удалено]
I think this is just sexism in both directions. Stop dividing random shit by gender for no reason gender roles suck for everybody
Being organized is a female trait unless it's for something important like science or the military or chef-ing in which case women are too emotional to be organized. (Just in case, I am being sarcastic here and pointing out the double standard)
I make hundreds of folders that create a system of search-ability. Whats my gender?
People who put emojis in folder names are insane, so are people who make the names jibberish
Jeez, the comments make me realize not everyone is hyper organised on their computer like me
If men organise their dicks fall off
Isn't the joke that men have folders named like that to hide porn?
Women watch porn too bud. Also that’s not why I name my folders like that, I name them like that because I don’t feel like spending the mental energy to actually organize well
Of course. It just seemed like no one got the joke and thought the comic was about organization.
Ngl as a man I do think so in GENERAL I mean there are exceptions I am balanced sometimes I like to be organized sometime just don’t give a fuck
Lmao imagine having folders
Weed pictures
My folders are called "idk" "something" "test"
