        But I can’t close them, I need to remember! I don’t know what I need to remember any more but they seem important

      At work I use tab groups to keep them organized by project, so I can tell just how far behind/how overwhelmed I am with a given project by the count of tabs in a given tab group.

      It’s a highly effective way to quantify my work-related anxiety.

    This is part of why I self-host things. I have a lot of projects and project ideas, and Trello - while great for what it is - is slowly becoming enshittified, so I run a Planka instance instead. I also have a Nextcloud instance, Immich for photos, and a bunch of other things that help me stay organized. It took me a decade to figure out how to organize my homelab services and hardware, but now I have it set so all I need to do is check github/gitlab for updates and breaking changes for any particular service, log into any of my Dockge instances (all 4 of them are linked), and click the “update” button in the relevant stack. Yes, I know there are automations for that, too. One thing at a time.

    Wow. I signed up for a service to do this and it’s mostly filled with memes or funny stuff. I’m glad I’m not the only one.

    You have to remember the thing you wanted to remember and where you put it only to find it six months after the point it was useful anymore but don’t delete it because it might be important again even though the odds of you remembering it and where it is should it be useful are near zero.

    In the immediate future, the screenshot archive becomes unmanageable.

    In the long term future, it becomes the modern equivalent of what your parents and grandparents got out of keeping a scrapbook or photo album.

    I’ve been chronically online since 1997. Going through a scrap folder which I held onto when decommissioning an old PC or phone brings back all kinds of memories. I even find that noting the changes in my meme taste can be really useful for identifying points where I’ve grown as a person. That, in turn, leads to reprocessing old memories and identifying ways in which I brought something to the table which facilitated some of my own bad experiences. That helps me heal.

      I have data on my NAS stretching back to 2002. It’s been migrated a few times, but the metadata doesn’t lie.
