But how do we know what to delete?

The drive (pardon the pun) to keep it all, is compelling vs the mental effort and time to sort and select.

I mean, I agree with you, but it's like the one time in 5 years when you have just the right cable in your electronics junk box.

Random Reinforcement is tough to break.

Always thought it would be useful to set up some sort of rolling window to delete anything from Downloads after 7 days or something.

Knowing that would force curation.
