The symlink is a good idea. This is great because it utilizes the file system feature. It is maybe not as portable if you look on cross-plattform like Windows to Mac or iOS and Android.
Does anyone have experimented with this?
We (part time or full time) Windows users might get an interesting option with Windows 11 and next generation “Windows Subsystem Linux” (WSL)

This would be great for using the linux file system that is the same base file concept as in Mac (maybe even Android)
