A problem I have, and I'd guess a lot of people now have, is organization. We have the ability to easily capture content, and even easier now organize it via albums. But you have to build your own "system" of organization. And now we use our camera for mundane things, like screenshots, reminders, documentation, etc. so the amount of new data is just ever increasing.
My parents had a camcorder that was out for special occasions. The organization is automatically chronological, everything is a highlight because there are (relatively) way fewer videos, and if you sit down to watch them, you get a multi-month span, with multiple events on a single tape.
Apple/Google Photos attempt to recreate some of this by grouping & generating videos, but for me it doesn't have quite the same feeling, they are usually too specific like "Trip to NY" rather than "November/December 1997".
When you transfer your files to storage, you can use a simple script to rename the files with date taken and into a year -- month -- day folder structure.
Or dumping everything into one folder would work with metadata, though I've found different programs get confused with created date Vs modified date Vs other metadata used, so best to rename.
In the future this will likely be less of an issue with ai reading everything, easy organisation and searching and, I hope, an ai that can read 2 tb of videos and create a 20 min vacation edit or best of birthdays in the last 10 years etc
