i keep them in labeled containers: data cables, audio cables, power cables and extension cords
I still keep them all in one giant box, but they're all sorted and velcroed together
Amateur. You're supposed to just throw them all in a giant tangled mess. I'm gonna laugh when you need one and you don't even have to spend an hour figuring out what's what.
That was me for the last 15 years lol
Finally spent some time on it after a move
Mine are pipecleanered neatly (couldn't find the Velcro) and grouped into gallon Ziploc bags.
fancy
I'm organized like that too, but I've simplified it: They are all in the same box, labelled Cables, or it will be when I make a label, which I probably won't.
Maybe I'll write on it with a Sharpie, if I can find my Sharpie.
