hydrus VS TagSpaces

Just download and sort it out later. Title and extension are good enough for me - the best 'metadata' / tag generator is my mind + eyes + ears, which are put to work using Hydrus Network.

I can't train LoRAs on my AMD hardware but if I could I would be using the grabber I mentioned above along with Hydrus for database management and maybe IrfanView for batch resizing. Your program handles all of it on its own in a very user friendly manner so congratz for that! Bookmarking it for when I can use it.

Have you looked at hydrus, https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus?

that looks like a mac ver. of hydrus which is great for sorting & tagging images. I've literally never even thought of it in terms of other media...

Hydrus is a good alternative.

This brings us to Hydrus. My choice of software for tagging. Hydrus is a image database tool for weebs whose image libraries are too large to be practically brosed with windows folder system. It has may features but we are only interested in its tagging system.

Once you have all images with their filenames.ext.txt with decent tags as you like, you can dump them all into a Hydrus then on the import options you have a button somewhere to add tags from filename.txt - select that and import.

Either way, will definitely be keeping an eye on your app, it seems ducking cool ;)

TagSpaces – Your versatile file organizer (version 50504): organize, tag and browse your files, photos and documents

Take a file. Add [awesome] to the name. There. You've tagged a file, and you can search for it with your desktop search / fzf / etc. Switch system, copy it anywhere, it works. You can do this by hand. Or, if you like clicks and drag-n-drop, use TagSpaces. Or, use tss.

The UNIX filesystem has traditionally been a graph for ever. I haven't looked at details for a couple of decades, but definitely all UNIX/POSIX/Linux filesystems operate on a graph model.

A distinction I used to make when I was teaching this stuff: on your filesystem tree, on Unix names (labels) are on the links (arrows), while on DOS/Windows names are on nodes (boxes).

TagSpaces: TagSpaces is a cross-platform tagging and organizing tool that can help you tag and manage your files and folders. It supports various file formats and can be used with local and cloud storage providers.

Hmmm. Always a good question. It is open source so, in theory, you can decide for yourself.
