Android: file saved successfully.

Me: and where exactly it is saved

Below that is a black and white picture of a chimpanzee (or is that a bonobo?) dressed in a long sleeve shirt and smoking a cigarette, with the caption “who the fuck knows”

Cx File Explorer is the shit. It’s like navigating a desktop file manager with network shares and all. I can find anything I need.

Xfolder best file manager.

Yeah I figure it’s a small thing to do that can help others enjoy the stuff I enjoy, so I try to caption stuff whenever I have the energy. Also I have macular degeneration because my immune system hates me, so I’m acutely aware that I might eventually need image descriptions myself

…open a file explorer? People just can’t be bothered to learn the file systems anymore. If it’s not on the desktop/main screen, they are confused. A small amount of people actually know. 25+ to -40 give or take a few years

Open a file explorer, okay.

But then what? Did the app tell you where it saved your file? No, many apps don’t. So now you have to check in which of the several synonym-of-the-word-picture named folders that image is.

That’s just annoying. I want files I download to default into the downloads folder, for me to then put them wherever I want them to be.

You know, I do agree that many people would probably benefit from learning a bit more about the devices they use, but some devices just do things in a stupid way.

It’s -60 at this point, gen-x had computers too (arguably more versed in computing due to having to use command line terminals). It’s the boomers and zoomers with the issues.

I love the ageism here.

Like people over 40 don’t know how to use technology.

Someone hasn’t tried scavenging for files hidden in the app’s obb folder

Thought to me “Yeah true”.

Showed it to my gf and she said “Too true”.

So kinda yeah.

Also very true for Windows 11, sometimes.
