30 days agoIt’s a subdirectory that was created on April 2023. Looking inside, it contains a bunch of APKs related to YT Revanced. I kept it there because I can’t come up with a better location to move it to. That’s basically the same story for almost all of the files that ended up staying in the directory anyways. However, I try to keep try to keep things clean.
Whenever I visit the downloads directory, I make it a point to try to remember the context in which the files ended up in there. If I can no longer remember the context, I delete it. If there ends up way too many files of “the same class” then I’ll try to move them together onto a different location. But if it’s a file or two that I can’t move elsewhere, it’s no big deal.
Grew up in a sizeable metropolitan area, in a residential enclave surrounded by commercial areas. The “inner” streets in our area are a bit too narrow for car traffic, but was often used as a shortcut by pedestrians.
We mostly played games on the residential streets, pausing to the occasional pedestrian, or the rare car to pass by. If we do play hide and seek, we can play it through the narrow alleyways of our area or even the nearby commercial buildings (we always agree on the bounds beforehand though). Sometimes, we hang out in the nearby arcade. Rarely, we go to the nearby seaside (as the city is next to the coast) just to hang out, but crossing the really wide eight-lane roads cutting off the seaside makes it kinda rare.
I’ve often found myself in places I shouldn’t be, like off-limits areas in the nearby commercial buildings, even managed to sneak inside one of the rooms of the nearby motel that one time. There’s a lot of things to get lost in around our area and I took it for granted that most things are just a short walk away.
The place I hung out the most, however, is a bookstore that was just across the road from the end of our street. And since this bookstore is also near the arcade, I’d choose one or the other depending on my mood, and remaining allowance.
