    Don’t you know? Users being told the exact location of a file is not user-friendly!

    Firefox: oh you just saved 3 files to a folder, allow me to save the next one to a folder you haven’t downloaded anything to in months.

    Thank the allmaker for KDE recent files.

    This is a real problem with young people coming into the office. They don’t know how to navigate a file system. They’ve never had to do it.

    Opens the files app which shows all files that were recently downloaded from any app to the file system.

      That’s like piling all your paperwork on your office desk in a giant tower in the order they came in and arguing that’s just as good as sorting them into files and putting them in the cabinet.

        Is this your first file system? It literally does sort it into “videos” if I have a video or “images” if it’s an image. What do you crack heads want it to do?

    Meanwhile Windows; Hi, you saved a file earlier? Let’s search for it. Nope, can’t find it, do you want to search Bing? No? [A few minutes later] Ooo, so sorry you’re offline and can’t download it. Too bad.

    Ios; you want to open the file in an app? OK, click 7 buttons and we’ll make a local copy stored in the app’s specific folder you didn’t know existed.

    Chrome; what’s a file?

    Linux; which file browser would you like to use today?

      Windows is more like, oh that file you saved earlier? Yeah we moved that to OneDrive. You want it back? Sorry didn’t pay your OneDrive subscription fee, so you don’t actually have that file anymore. Hope it wasn’t something irreplaceable like your kid’s baby photos or anything lol.
