What's your favorite tool (ex. App, program, device) for being a musichoarder?
For subsequent tagging I use Puddletag or Picard. Puddletag's great for automated tagging as well as getting tags in great shape, customised tagging, formatting and renaming/moving folders and collateral. It also supports tag sources in addition to Musicbrainz.

Which metadata editor should I use to edit .ogg, .m4a and .mp3 metadata?
I use puddletag for many years and am pretty happy with it. It's still actively developed.
puddletag is pretty nice. I'm mostly using it for filename->tag and cleaning up tags (case conversion, remove whitespace etc.), it reminds me a bit of Foobars Mass Tagger which I loved.

Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
> CLI: I wanted to download songs from youtube, but they were often stitched as complete albums - so I wrote a youtube-cue generator that generates cuesheets that can then be used to split and tag the yt-dlp downloaded audio file. (https://github.com/captn3m0/youtube-cue)
Thanks for this! I need to do some testing, this might automate the last manual step of my own script for converting YT mixes into distinct tracks. The problem I faced is that often the timestamps are not in the description, but instead in a comment, sometimes not even the pinned/top voted comment. That is why I paste it in via stdin for now.
As this fits the thread topic, a short description of this script. I enjoy YT mixes and wanted to listen to them in my car. I can use an USB stick with media files and playlists which are displayed decently by the infotainment system. I wrote a script that takes in a YT URL (or anything supported by yt-dlp), downloads & converts it to mp3, splits the mp3 file based on a list of timestamps, recognizes (tries to anyway) the songs via SongRec [0], tags & names the files correctly and finally generates an M3U playlist in the format recognized by my car. I use song recognition instead of parsing out the names from the timestamped list as the format of Artist - Title is nearly always slightly different. It was easier to use SongRec instead and get everything I need for tagging with >90% hit rate.
The heavy lifting is done by calling out to yt-dlp, ffmpeg and SongRec. I just glued them together with Python. I like your approach of a do one thing well and might add youtube-cue to the toolset.

Beets is the media library management system for obsessive music geeks
Beets is amazing and comes with great defaults. I wrote code recently to generate CUE sheets from YouTube mixes[0] and beet imports it nicely and easily.
