Just yesterday I was actually thinking about cleaning out my desk's junk drawer... I know there's stuff that's been in there for 10 years... I've transitioned most of my devices to USB C. There's a lot of crap I know I don't need and haven't used in years.
Help!
For better or worse the love of my life randomly discard items from these locations.
Get some Velcro cable ties or some twist ties or something.
Then you should bundle up each cable and categorize them.
Look at your specialized chargers. Do you still own the devices that those use? Discard if no.
Look in each category. If you have a lot of any one cable type, consider paring them down. Get rid of anything damaged. I knew someone that went crazy on Mono price and had hundreds of USB micro cables. They donated all but about 50 and they are still doing ok in that department.
Now for all of your strange cables, it's a judgement call for you if you want to keep these or not. Does the value they give you (the possibility of needing them again and saving yourself the need to procure a new cable) outweigh the cost of keeping it (the space they take up in your living space or storage, plus the need to have to transport them when you move)? The answer to this is different for everyone. If you have a very small living area, the "cost" of keeping those cables is higher than if you have plenty of space. If you don't care about technology, that space could have been taken up by something you do care about.
I know it can be a big undertaking, but you got this!
