AppData folder: am I a joke to you?

Nobody wants to develop a tag-based filesystem?
It's basically in use today. Apparently younger generations are more used to searching for files rather than structuring them. https://www.theverge.com/22684730/students-file-folder-directory-structure-education-gen-z
Developing it would be way above my skills but I've been fantasising about it for a long time. https://lemmy.world/comment/14344097
Same. I think it would be more friendly for end-users too.
Just sounds messy and impractical
In my mind you could use it as your regular hierarchical file system, but the hierarchies are dynamic to your associations or needs.
Well, tree-based as we know it, is messy. Can't have a file that belongs to two places. Next time you look for it, you climb the tree, only to not find it in the other place the file belongs to.
What would that be?
Bring back WinFS.
