I still can't wrap my head around how people find their files in the non-filesystem world. Whenever I need to work with files I take out my laptop.

Even before mo lies people would say “I saved it in word”. Even if it was written to a floppy or usb drive.

They didn’t have the concept of files

The average computer user in 2000 was far more computer literate than the average one in 2010, and things have gone downhill ever since.

So it's not just me. I'm glad, I feel weird that I have to save links to every Google doc and every internal confluence page because there's no proper search across these.

Especially in a filesystem I know where I placed something, but not always the title, so even if the search function was ok, which it mostly isn't, having to know the wording used for the title is really inconvenient.
