so i’ve been searching for a long time for an image tagging software, there are some tools out there, some are electron based so no thanks, then there’s Hydrus which is actually very similar to what this does, but the GUI is horrible and the installation is way more complicated. I created a docker compose file and I was running Blombooru in a few minutes. So if anyone was looking for something like this to organize their system, please give it a try because it is really good!


My hydrus collection is 1.9TB with nearly 1m files. Can’t say I’ve ever had any kind of slowdown. A search with 24.8k results takes about 5 seconds, and that’s with the media stored on a HDD (though the database is on a SATA3 SSD). And run by an 8 year old AMD Ryzen 7 2700X. Plenty fast enough for me at least.
that seems pretty good overall. thanks for sharing!
