It is important to divide by type of areas of activity and then use it in different tools.
The general structure of information separation:
Winda offers for this so-called. "Libraries" - I don't like this tool and don't use it, because it combines files that are actually in God knows where. And I'm used to knowing the exact location of the file.
Therefore, in every computer, in the old fashioned way (since Win95), I set up the "My Documents" folder, setting it to the location on the d: / (UserData) partition.
The rest - according to the circumstances, without a single approach.
1. Keep movies on your computer in 2017? Seriously? photo in Yandex disk
2. Folder "Useful" -> Books.txt, Things.txt, Films.txt they contain links to some materials.
3. Raindrop.io
4. I'm not particularly puzzled by this, but I subscribe to some publics in VK, all sorts of hubs and around it. I save everything interesting in raindrop
1) Normal. Either a disk or a projects (job) folder for workers, where each folder is the name of the site (site.ru), it contains another site.ru folder in which the site itself, at the root of any folders (docs, psd)
Music, films, everything in the same folders. Music can be by genre.
Backups? Projects in the git, documents on the local desktop server, everything is in the same hierarchy, synchronized with the mail disk and dropbox on 1tb
2) Google spreadsheets, evernot
3) Speeddial extension with tabs "Articles", "Forums on Technology N"
1) I use dropbox. In the home directory there is a folder with dropbox'om. Everything important is there, in a convenient hierarchy. I wrote the code on my laptop, saved it, left the house, got on the bus, opened it from the phone while I was driving, looking for where it can be optimized.
2) Directory with pdf's. Also, when I study something, I write it down in a notebook / notebook / notebook. Antediluvian technology, but it’s easier for me to remember, and flipping pages is more pleasant than turning a wheel.
One of my acquaintances uses Latex for such purposes.
Your decision, I think, will be convenient for you.
Evernote for articles, Keepass for passwords (Google Drive based), Chrome for bookmarks, it syncs with your phone. Google Keep for notes.
