Mm idk, I think knowing how to use folders is pretty important. It helps people stay organized.
The article wasn't talking about file systems like FAT32 or NTFS. It was talking about using directories, instead of "pulling files from a laundry basket" by using a search bar.
Ehhhh I'm not convinced that the method of dumping everything in a pile and using search is such a bad thing for average users. For admins on servers it's absolutely critical to know what is in what directory, but for average users does it actually matter at all?
Honestly I'm bad enough about being consistent with my data organization I genuinely wonder if I should join them in just searching through the pile of documents rather than organizing in neat folders...
