Agree on the hydrus UI. I love it and wish more things used a more classic style interface. It’s slim, it works, and while it can admittedly be a little bit of a maze, it does practically anything you can imagine. And most importantly it’s not a damn website pretending to be a UI like so many things these days. Blombooru looks like a white space nightmare imo. I will say that the tag extractions from AI metadata looks very nice though.

And thank you for the link to Find A Fox. I don’t know how I never knew about this, but I very much needed it! 🦊

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.
