      So real. I’ve always thought music apps like iTunes/Spotify etc. were superfluous when you already have a file system and sym links.

        i used symlinks first, but they break when you rename target files or directories.

        as long as it’s one file system, hard links work better for me. so one day i replaced them all with hard links.
