I have too many files I didn't know. Probably random git repos I cloned to get a specific tool; Old university projects; Random pdf downloaded over time; many, and many screenshots (and an entire folder of party parrots); The md and html from static sites of @glua (the old one), @ansol and @FestaSoftwareLivre

@tommi @xpub ...why do I have so 124335 HTML files?? I guess that's what I get for having a few Rust toolchains installed.

💾 The File Count Challenge 🔎

Have you ever wondered how many PDFs, images, videos, or particular kind of files you have on your device? It is the time to find out.

💁 How to participate

2. Open the terminal
3. Run find . | grep '.pdf$' -c (on Windows: gci -r | where Name -match '\.pdf$')
4. Repeat the previous command, replacing “pdf” with any file format you are interested in sharing. We suggest: jpg, mp3, and png. 🔆 Bonus: html, js, ttf, odt, svg
5. Take a screenshot of the output
6. Share the screenshot on the Fediverse, using the #fileCountChallenge hashtag (please, copy-paste the actual text from the terminal in the image description/alt text)
7. Add your (user)name and results to the scoreboard
8. 🆒 Bonus: share the story explaining why you have so many/little files for one format.

🏆 Awards

There is a secret prize for the three people who have the most PDFs, JPEGs, and HTMLs. More info to follow.
