Perhaps I have missed something but if subfolders for attachments has been added to 3.3 how do you use it?

Sorry, submitted my post prematurely. While the change is present in the master branch and should be in the next major release (4.0), 3.3 was not branched from master directly so the change was not included.

Is there any other way to solve the issue without waiting for years and without introducing personal patches?

Introducing those patches will not solve your issue at the present stage. Do not try this at home :)

Other ways:

1 - ask for an extension to be made for free, here: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewforum.php?f=496
2 - ask for an extension to be made paid for, here: https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewforum.php?f=656

No - standard answer is it will be released when it is ready.

My guess is that if everything that is being suggested for phpBB 4.0 goes ahead (especially the new style) then we are possibly looking at 2022 at the earliest.
