@uint8_t I take some shortcuts in service of a system that's more manageable to me:
* No hierarchy, just top-level folders to group similar photos (e.g. trips, events, photoshoots)
* ISO-8601 date prefix on folders
* Multi-day events just get grouped under one day, don't overthink it
* Catch-all month folders for misc photos
* Photos get uploaded from my phone to an "Inbox" on my Synology NAS automatically (graph counts items in the Inbox)
* Periodically sort things (graph go down??)
