Don't know if it fits here, but I think yes. It's little bit the opposite of hoarding. I'm a master of hoarding links which "can by useful in future!" And yes, I found a lot of useful, forgotten links which I neatly organized yesterday, finally (1k of them), but I also discovered how many useless ones I have saved. And how many doesn't work anymore. (Note to myself: save really interesting topics and useful articles, they will be go sooner then you think).

So I went through all my "knowledge database links", open one by one - especially after I realized that even articles on National Geografic are not there anymore, save them to the correct spot in Obsidian if still useful and interesting, noted them - what it is, why I save it.

But then... I just deleted all the pretty folders. I deleted all the shitty articles of random webpages. And I feel so great now. It's clean, it's organized, and ready for new system, where I will be more organized at the first place and save them with some thinking, not just by the rule "save them all!"

Fresh new start before big life changes. Amazing!
