Ooh this is a good idea! Because when you extract a file you just downloaded the original creation/modification dates are preserved. So when you extract some tarball the directory my be from several years ago so you can’t rely on file modification times to see when you downloaded any given thing.
I think I’m going to start doing the date directory thing! I’ll start by writing a bash script that runs in a systemd timer that automatically creates a directory whenever the month changes 👍
