Stacks was exactly my inspiration web describing piles, and gallery is kinda my inspiration on how to "thumb through" files. Except my idea would require a lot of resources dedicated to high quality compressed previews of documents.

Also, I'm not proposing this like I think I've come up with an invention. I'm just hoping that my random musings would inspire someone with far more technological knowhow than myself. When I worked in mobile tech support, I quickly realized that the majority of issues that let bad-actor computer repair companies take advantage of old people revolved around printing stuff.

Even though I no longer work in tech support, I still offer free basic tech support and computer repairs to older members of my community to try to make amends for having worked for such bloodsucking companies.
