Starting the slow work of cleaning up my pictures folder with
FSlint
.sudo dnf install fslint
That's pretty nice. Makes me want to sync my OneDrive to Linux so I can go through it with that.
Let me know how it goes and turns out.

The program works nice. It is just a GUI wrapper for
find
andmd5sum
, etc.But the GUI lets me quickly pop to the folders and views the images with a right click.
The problem is how bad I have been for more than 15 years on organizing my pictures. Though it got worse when I got a true smart phone in 2010.

Same. We end up with 40-60GB "phone dumps" of pictures and videos that we never really have enough time to sort and archive.
I try to archive like this:
- Pictures
- Year
- Month
- Year
- Videos
- Year
- Month
- Year
I name the months like this for easy sorting plus visual:
07-July
And in the year and/or month folders goes the "fixed" pictures and the Instagram, screenshots, other app pics and video.
That's ideal, and not always the case. Just need more time, and FSlint would be nice.

I started with Year - Month, but I did not like it. So I switched to doing Year - Event

One reason this crossed my mind when I was looking at pictures is because I recently got a new iPhone and noticed that our iCloud 200GB shared plan is filling up with images that exist nowhere else. So I need to get some thing organized and then start pulling them down from there.

Yeah that was my initial way to do it but there's more stuff than events so that didn't work. We know when the holidays are so we can just as easily go to that month. All photos have the default name which starts with a sortable date, so just as easy to find events. If there's something really special, I create a folder for it within the month folder if I need further grouping. But my main point here is that we go out all the time and there is pictures and videos. There's no event to label it by, so default is in the month.

Yeah what I do on my phone is link my OneDrive to it. All photos and videos I take get uploaded automatically there, and makes it easier to sort. I don't have any apps on my phone that creates other pics and videos so it works well for me. Not the case for my wife. It's her phone dumps that are work.

Working on documentation - Moving info from hand-written notes to spreadsheets and docs. I know an IPAM system would work better but there are too many to choose from.

Here's a screenshot, I had the month name wrong above:
Same concept for the videos folder.

Survived a house full of 3&4 year olds; now working on updating our Win10 Image to 1903.
Someone left a Meraki AP on my desk with a note asking what I can do with it? I'm thinking see what happens when it goes between a sledgehammer and a concrete floor -

Looking at EasyNAS.
It uses openSUSE Leap as a base with the Btrfs advanced file system. -

Be careful with Btrfs.
