Bro independently reinvented the Booru

Please make a video on how to replicate your setup

Please please please continue to develop this as far as you can take it. I’ve been putting off getting a proper NAS for a couple years, mostly because I didn’t want to figure out how to organize my files. I was really worried that I wouldn’t be able to find something from a long time ago because I decided to change how I did things. I had this exact same idea of being able to tag files, but hadn’t gotten around to looking for solutions yet. Your project is exactly what I want. Folders suck. Tags are 100% superior. I will definitely be taking a look at Tag Studio.

Hey, Cyan you're doing a great job, consider making A gtk theme for the app too, would be much appreciated.

No mention of Hydrus?

Bro the editing is so overkill for the topic but it’s fire honestly.

I'm looking forward to using this. I have a feature suggestion that might only help me lol but here goes, can you add the capability for the file app to run a scan and do a preliminary pre-classification, maybe an ML/AI plugin option?

Litterly a problem im search for years for

I've bookmarked your GitHub and will definitely be playing with this in the next few months - please carry on. I went totally digital a few years ago and sifted my files into Daminion: Pros: endless custom fields/tags/categories & very flexible interface. Cons: Primarily aimed at image catalogues so struggles (and sometime completely ignores) some key file types (e.g. LibreOffice files!), entirely stand-alone so info doesn't show up in other programmes, no updates because they stopped selling to individuals and the 'enterprise' edition is mega-pricey.

I've kind of never found a good solution once Picasa ended a gazillion years ago. I have tons of image files, a lot of them for Clip Studio or Photoshop, and most file browsers don't really support previews out of the box. I'll have to experiment with your alpha a bit. I'm not sure if you're using an actual database, but it would be really handy to have one running on my NAS where the files are stored with a local client running on a separate desktop machine, probably windows. It might even be simpler to have a browser frontend on the NAS, as having end users connect to a database (or even a flat text file, not sure how you're handling things yet...), it can get kind of hairy. #featurecreep

Apple's Lawyers be like "ACKTUALLY you did consent when you definitely read and agreed to the EULA when we rolled out that update"

not sure if it's possible to implement but some sort of automated tagging feature would be nice, but that would probably require some sort of image parsing feature that may or may not utilize ai. maybe make it opt in? but this was an eye opening video, very well presented and informative. looking forward to more videos and projects from you, subbed!

When would be a good time for us to start using your app? I had a brief look at Eagle but saw that I can't use it, for it's not available on Linux.

I feel like some god has heard my prayers I'm someone that has like 30 different folders for memes and just roughly memorize where they are in the folders

been actually using Eagle for years. its great

First video I am watching from you and my thoughts are: -that "oh COME ON!" moments are just sooo relatable as an artist and now learning GDScript for my game dev reskilling. You are practically at the whims of the world, and when you wish you finally struck gold with a good idea, you find the othe guy who did it faster. But in my eyes, your project can stand on it's own easier due to how much more in-depth you went with these magic variables known as tags. -I really REALLY LOVE your project and genuinely want to extend my support! I NEED THIS! Please carry on! I simply cannot bring myself to compare your project to Eagle, your logo design and presentation is much better in my eyes, along with the more in-depth system and thinking behind all this. -so shittin' happy you are making this FOSS! For me, more reason to support your project over Eagle!

Guy reinvents hydra, lol. I just care if this works on Everything (the search).

A feature i really love from Samsung gallery is being able to search by text *in* an image, super useful for retrieving memes quickly as i can usually at least a part of them verbatim, i wish file explorer had this lol

Holy shit...Is this magic???

This was amazing. Thank you so much!!

Please keep working on this!!!!! As an indie game dev my 4 different hard drives are a mess!!!

Hey make a software that is like after facts by so easy to use 22:45 😅

What about xattrs? I absolutely love the animations in this video, BTW.

I did the same journey you did. I tried TagSpaces (and DigiKam) but had thw same issues? It'd be nice if we could just use NTFS and XDG Extended Attributes, so that you wouldn't have had to look, but I'm damn glad you did!

Soo ur making a porn/amazon search ... Cool!!! I don't see why eagle needs to dupe every file, but I'm sure your "media user interface" will re address files when moved... Good luck with everything. I was happy when I found programs to remove dupes off multiple drives.

Maybe create tags automatically using AI?

Maybe I missed it, how did you end up storing the metadata? I started a project like this a while back, and essentially I just stored a checksum of each file in a database and stored the metadata that way. Then you just write a server that watches the directory tree and updates the on disk path for any files that are moved.

woaaah, this is what the world of nerds need

The number one feature I am looking for is a rock solid trustworthy way to find and eliminate duplicates that I have amassed over the decades.

I have been trying to figure out how to store amd manage my own files for decades to no avail. Glad to see I'm not the only one but I am not a programmer so my options are limited

Reminds me a lot of zotero, whose desktop app supports file storage

Just tried out, but for 3d files. Think there would be an update for previews of .stls?

Please make an iPad version. I really need this. (I’m not begging. This would be really useful ) 1:30

Awesome project. I’d love it if I could go through an exercise of tagging say 500 files and have an AI assistant learn my tagging style and auto tag and review to accelerate the mgmt of all this. Else, and I struggle with this too, quite a bit of time is spent in the tagging process which is eclipsed by how fast we procure / get new files. Also - if eagle just duplicates the files - how is that different than like migrating them into say Notion or a similar workspace environment ? And thus circumventing the issues and limitations by changing the workspace .

I've been thinking about something like this. Impressive work bud!

Hello, I have a problem with the color headers of documents, I did everything as in the instructions on github, moved the style file, numbered the names, but the colors do not apply. What could be the reason for this? I use the design from guthub, maybe it conflicts?

I recommend you start selling shares of tagstudio asap

I don't use obsidian i am here just to get ideas on how i can takes. Great video btw.

I found this JUST IN TIME! Ive spent the last 2 weeks outlining and prototyping something exactly like this. You have saved me from having to try and build something like this myself. I NEED this. Really really need this. I have about 100 years of family photos that im having bulk scanned and Ive been trying to figure out how to organize all the photos... honestly, you are currently my hero. Im going to TRY Eagle, but I want the flexibility of yours. I look forward to getting to try TagStudio Thank you

I smell a Hydrus clone.....

I don't know if this is possible, but in regards to features I'd like to see, it would actually be cool if the GUI could display a tag or tags of your choice that trump all the others that sort of have their own.. banner of sorts? Something you could even upload custom art for. Something not unlike the way Steam displays games? So you could click on the tag that you want. Even better is if it could have "folder" tags that you could click on beneath that. I have characters of my own, and while it'd be awesome for me to search up the characters I'd want, it'd also be awesome if I could click a big picture titled after one of my characters or something, and then it shows everything tagged with that.

Don't you dare stop working! If you need ANY help regarding creating a good UX or UI, reach out to me! I'll work on this open source project for free with you. I need this now.

Eagle uses the cringe corpo "art" for ads so...

Whenever I find a nice, clean, straightforward note taking app I find a video of someone going completely overboard with it an thereby ruins it for me. Its super pretty though, for sure.

Im sold, keep going

This is madness

There is a nice python library called NetworkX which might help you here. It makes it very easy to build and traverse graphs.

Awesome project!! As an artist/developer/management-systems-crazy-person I loved watching this video... and from the beginning I was thinking about Eagle :P Been using it for some 2 years now, and it's great. What sold me was the option to store the same file in multiple folders at once, which helped me find many files more easily when I needed them :D

this is too good.
