>don't understand files and folder

It may not go over well but I don't think this is some generational thing. Its just plain pure laziness that has become epidemic.

>I try to be organized, but there’s a certain point where there are so many files that it kind of just became a hot mess

Yeah.....need I say more? Other than gross. I think those statements prove my point better than I can.

Like most on HN I'm extremely computer savvy and I've yet to find a way to avoid dealing with file/folder models and I've tried. All other ways fall apart no matter how "advanced" they are. Maybe it will change with LLMs but so far there is no way for the computer to anticipate what you do/don't want and organize for you.
