Mine used to be overrun with files, until I read an article about how desktop clutter hurts productivity (?!).
Still not sure how that works, but now I keep my files organized in subfolders and sync them all to Dropbox. At least this way, everything is backed up regularly and I don't have to worry about data loss. Still, it feels a little weird not to have all my files instantly accessible on my desktop!

Nope, I only have the basics and try to consolidate often. In my off season, my project is to consolidate and organize our external hard drive because it's more of a mess.

Omg, yes. It's terrible. I have a messy physical desktop and virtual desktop... I'm just always afraid I'll need something and it's so easy to leave it on the desktop. I really need to purge, though

No, I hate that! I keep a few folders on my desktop that I put in-progress things into. Otherwise, it is very minimal. A desktop covered in icons gives me the heeby jeebies and I want to clean it for the person. Haha.

No - I don't like the clutter so I only have a few folders with sub-folders

Nope. I prefer everything organized. It gets messy sometimes from stuff DH does, but he cleans it up periodically. I mostly just have a folder that's mine and it's all I use.

No.
My mac doesn't have anything on the desktop and minimal things in the dock (about 10? max?).
My work computer has 10 items on the desktop and they are work related programs that I use on a daily basis.
