The moment I realized I was organizing my collections wrong

I used to put every single movie, book, and hobby item into one giant list. Then I tried to find a specific recipe from my vegan phase last year and spent 20 minutes scrolling past 3 years of camping gear purchases. Do you split collections by category or just throw them all together?

Honestly, I went through this exact thing last month but with my music playlists. Ngl, I had one massive playlist called "Stuff" that had everything from workout bangers to sad indie songs to old Bollywood tracks from my college days. Tried to play something for a road trip and it was just chaos. So now I have separate playlists for moods, activities, and even one just for cooking. Works way better, even if it took forever to sort out.

Tbh I did something similar with my bookmark folders. Had one folder just called "Links" with like 200 random tabs saved and it was a nightmare trying to find anything. Took a whole afternoon to sort them into like travel, recipes, tutorials and just random stuff I'll never actually look at again.
