Abandoning folders for tags and then tags for search. That’s how the decline of civilization started. On Judgment Day when St. GPT asks you to account for yourself you can say “I should never have abandoned folders” Without folders we’re no better than monkeys slinging poop

I did a folder restructuring early this year. Was leaning too hard on search. Non trivial maintenance work of indie life 😂

Search rules everything around me. Folder trees are inefficient most of the time. https://i.imgur.com/Tt0UYoL.jpg

don't worry about keeping things organized, just use the search function they said. I'll never forgive evernote for that. 😂

Pissst, folders were always just tags at the directory level. They tricked us again.
