My Documents
December 26th, 2007
Today as my file dialog opened to save a freshly downloaded pdf it defaulted to my $HOME/Documents directory. Why? I have never created a Documents directory and I certainly don't use it. I didn't even know it existed! Where did it come from? Where did Music, Pictures, and Videos come from? I know I deleted them from the default skeleton for Ubuntu and I'm sure the Arch installer didn't put them there. Who decided I needed these things and that I should use them? They're capitalized, don't begin with a '.', and are empty. They are a stupid suggestion and an eyesore. Should I really put all my videos in the same subtree? I don't mind .xinitrc, mail, .bash_history, Desktop, News, etc... These files have a purpose. Documents, Music, Pictures, and Videos are totally useless and empty. Thank you for demonstrating that directories exist. Thank you for causing my file dialog to conveniently default to Documents. If this were Windows I'd have to add a gracious Thank You!!! to all software for assuming that I save everything in My Documents, and for that matter, that everything I save is a Document! I don't even know who I'm thanking. Who's idea was this anyway? Maybe it's my fault for assuming that words have meaning or for not keeping my underwear-drawer perfectly labeled and sorted. Whoever you are please stop creating useless directories in $HOME for the sole purpose of imposing your world view. If I ever get the chance to write to your $HOME I'll create a directory called Idiot's Files and move everything else into that.
