Are directory structures a meme in 2016?

Should I put all my rare pepes and other memes under ~/Pictures, instead using a tag system for organization?

Search "pepe": get all pepes
Search "meme": get all memes

~/Pictures/rare-pepe.png will stay in it's place forever, providing reliable access

Thoughts?

linux doesnt even a file preview, and you want it to search for tags for frog posting?

the biggest issue is probably the tags being dependent on the file system

any ideas? My memes are on a mac but I want to keep them portable

Saving images is a meme in 2016. Just gis.

Just use symlinks or hard links.

With symbolic or hard links (ln on unix), a file can be in multiple locations. Just use directories as tags then.

I can show you an example how to do this if you still don't get it.
