Append EH "gallery ID" to downloaded gallery's folder name, to avoid accidental overwrites caused by non-unique gallery names
See original GitHub issueDescribe your suggested feature
I frequently download EH galleries to my device. But there are many instances of multiple EH galleries having the exact same name, as galleries’ names aren’t unique (although their IDs are unique).
So, I usually rename the gallery’s folder after the download finishes, manually appending the gallery ID to the folder name, to avoid later accidentally overwriting a previous gallery I downloaded with a newer one. I copy the gallery ID value from the “ⓘ More info” screen.
Now, I thought about having the option to automatically append the gallery ID number to the downloaded gallery’s folder name. This could be a very useful feature, to avoid overwrite collisions with same-named galleries.
It would be nice if the gallery ID could be appended to the downloaded galleries folders (located on TachiyomiSY\downloads) and also to the “saved images” folders (located on Pictures\TachiyomiSY).

👍 I was able to take advantage of the existing scanlator handling for the chapter downloads. It would be another thing entirely to make something for saved images. I don’t think it’s priority so I’ll mark this as completed for now
