A cleanup routine for your media library without losing what matters
Good cleanup is not random deletion. It is a calm decision about what remains useful and what no longer has a place.
Why this problem appears
Temporary clips pile up beside important files, and deleting anything becomes scary because value is unclear.
For "A cleanup routine for your media library without losing what matters", a good app alone is not enough. You also need a small habit that makes use clearer and easier over time.
