    I don’t touch it either for two reasons that go together.

    1. It’s a pig sty before I even get there.
    2. Nothing in there will ever be included in backups for that reason.

    My cloud drive has SO much random flstudio crap in it. That’s the worst program in the world when it comes to that. If you install their program they think they own your hard drive.

    Also while I’m bitching about windows folders, why did they make it so weird to get to your home folder? It feels like we aren’t supposed to know it exists anymore.

        It’s not terrible once you learn the muscle memory.

        I’m sure there’s some obscure key bind to go directly there, but I just do Cmd+Shift+G in Finder to get to the browse to path dialog, type ~, and hit return.

        Still a stupid extra amount of work, but at least it’s not having to use my mouse, typing %USERPROFILE%, or having to type the absolute path. That would piss me off even more.

          It’s just Cmd+Shift+H (for Home). The shortcuts for many of the most common locations are extremely intuitive.

          • Cmd+Shift+A (Applications)
          • Cmd+Shift+D (Desktop)
          • Cmd+Shift+L (~/Library)
          • Cmd+Shift+C (Computer)
