Have y’all not heard of zotero?
File names are for plebs.
Serious people use document management systems and rich metadata to manage these things.

Hello wizard,
May I ask what ur favorite “document management system” is (hopefully containerized in docker)?
It’s not my fault. All the servers hosting papers name them like this. Go complain to them. No seriously, go complain to them. This has annoyed me for quite some time.
would you prefer thrid_paper_0.0.6.4_final_upload_final.pdf?
How about "Title.Up.To.20.Characters.Name.Lastname.et.al.id123523432.pdf
Meanwhile, the russian website uses firstauthorYEAR.pdf
Common publishing industry L.
Seriously, why would anybody bother putting their papers in a folder when the desktop is just right there?
You would be surprised at how many people digitally toss shit everywhere
I’m one of them, haha. My archives are nice and organized, but anything related to a current project I’m working on either lives on the desktop or lives at ~, depending on which machine I’m using. Automated output type files go into a structure (like any kind of processed or cleaned data), but figures? References? Drafts? FFA on the desktop. For whatever reason I just cannot function with an organized workspace
bitch_ass_transmission_bill_2025
taxes_2025 fucking_student_loan_bullshit_2025It changed my life. Mainly because of the automatic citation handling and bibliography generation in LyX.
