Hey everybody, this is just a thread to talk about our everyday life with Hydrus.

How are you coping with your file hoarding addiction now that you're being enabled?

Are you remembering to take some time to tag what you download?

You ARE making a monthly backup next week, right?

What kinds of files are you saving, and what sorts of tags are you committing to the repo?

Right now I'm sorting through the downloads from a few of my NSFW subscriptions pre-tagging. They are all about half stuff I want and half gay shit I don't want, so I put "impure" in their subscription tags and I just go through 100 at a time and purify them. It does tend to break about even with me keeping 50 files out of each 100. Pray for me anons.

…AND YOU?

I haven't opened Hydrus since Dec 31. I created a new database password using Keepass, it's something impossible to remember then used once of those "email yourself in the future" services to send it back to me next summer. So, I literally cannot access Hydrus atm. Hopfully, when I eventually update everything to the newer version it will go smoothly.

I am still hoarding though. I have a folder called merge, which is loosely organized for when I will dump/merge it back into Hydrus.

Also, debating whether to delete my DB because of all dat porn. Seriously. The hell do you archive?

I was just thinking about this, man. It wasn't easy already having anal autism, but now that hydrus is in my life my chronic OCD is even worse.

>Are you remembering to take some time to tag what you download?

>You ARE making a monthly backup next week, right?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>monthly

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>not weekly

Take it from me, if you only do monthly backups you're fucked.

>What kinds of files are you saving, and what sorts of tags are you committing to the repo?

I always commit for *booru downloads, but I save and tag all kind of shit, especially 4/pol/, 4/a/, 4/jp/ and 8/monster/ threads. I also constantly rip pixiv artists. I must save around 6000 files every week at minimum.

I usually put "!imported pixiv", "!imported deviantart" etc in the tag options for subscriptions so that I can always do a search for them in case I forget to sort the mess.

Pic related, I 235 pictures of the russian ambassador assassination. How? I have no idea.

I also fell for the porn hoard meme tbh. Before hydrus I hardly saved any porn besides the occasional sadpanda doujinshi. Now everything's fair game.

I use Keepass too. Sounds convoluted, but whatever keeps you a semi-functioning member of society, I guess. Right now nearly everything is still in my inbox, untagged. I'm thinking about starting a separate database just for my wallpapers and reaction images, and leave the porn in the current one, but I'm putting it off until we have a way to migrate files/tags between dbs. I also might make a separate one from both of those to hold all of my movies and such. Hydrus seems to do a pretty good job of exporting big files for use with MPC-HC, even if there's a bit of a wait at the start it plays smoothly afterwards.

>>5189

>4000+ pictures in the inbox

You are like little tiny baby.

I have 103000 with just the four or five tags I batch-import them with, and about 13000 "more or less" tagged/selected in inbox. Granted up to maybe a quarter of the inbox files will go away once the dupe manager is perfected, but I have my work cut out for me and I've gotten lazy about doing tagging work. Part of the problem is I'm still developing and revising trying to get a functional, organized, easy to remember local tagging protocol, a single standard.

>weekly backups

100K+ files on an external drive.

Backups on another external drive.

Granted I can still use my laptop somewhat while it's copying, but WEW. Monthly is all I can manage until I get my desktop fixed.

For my imports, I use "download:4chan" etc, because I want to save the "source:" namespace for actual original sources. "import" will just be a non-namespaced tag probably for everything I import from local files.

I'm lucky in a way because I have only specific autistic porn interests, but unlucky in that it's gone from hard to find ten years ago to lots of stashes can be found around five years ago to FUCKING EVERYWHERE now. Still going back and forth about how strict I'm going to be on what I keep, if I should tag some of the stuff that's "good" before I delete it, and what combinations of tags I should use to separate the "really good" stuff from the rest.

I have decided to completely ignore boorus and hope the custom login and download engines are released before all of the boorus I want to use suffer some terrible accident. Reason being I can't even bear to look through a page of most boorus based on two chosen tags without having my long and detailed blacklist in place to protect me from the autism.

I actually haven't even started importing my porn or other files I had saved/sorted various places before I started with Hydrus, and have more piling up in my Downloads folder as misc stuff not worth downloading a whole thread for.

Maybe once I get my living situation sorted I'll find the time to sort, import and tag my info and propaganda stuff, so I can meme with the big boys and provide sources for things.

You should use an intelligent backup program. rsync takes like 5 minutes each week to do a backup, since it only manipulates files that changed. Same for FreeFileSync.

And I have 4000+ pictures in the inbox DESPITE handling 6000+ each week. I just delete a shitton of them because I have very specific tastes, but it keeps piling up faster than I can tag it. I have something like 200k files in the "all known files" category.

I save every /v/ webm thread i see, using DownthemAll to save things with their original filenames. I've discovered, to my surprise, that 8chan will serve you two versions of the same file if you click and drag over the entire page with DtA, one with metadata and one without, which is interesting. Really hoping that Hydrus dupe-finder rolls out to videos soon, so i can trim all this down and merge a few things together.

As of right now, 158,937 images and videos, coming up to 400GB in file size, but i guess that's my fault for deliberately going for large, oversized webms rather them tiny images. I've also started converting gifs that don't move into jpg and gifs that do and are also over 1mb in size to webm, which is a bit of a side project right now.

I commit all the tags with a space after the namespace. That's my fault, sorry. The Filename: tag is totally ruined thanks to my work. Due to a personal problem with unnamespaced tags, i've completely removed them all from my personal database. Every single tag in my database has a namespace to match. Right now, my list of usable namespaces is as follows:


Aircraft: (Which by itself, is parented to Board:/k/. I use it for anything that has an aeroplane in it, and if i don't recognize it, i use Aircraft: tagme.)
Art: (Which is full of my wallpapers, as well a lot of /tg/ character and landscape art. Has a lot of Tagme for some reason)
Board: (All of which are chan boards, like /k/, /pol/, or /v/. Used as both a place for board culture stuff as well as more generic potholes for things that i should post in those boards and only those boards)
Booru: (Most of which has been too much trouble to remove, so i've just kept it from the public tag repo)
Chans: (Like board, but for specific chans. Been thinking about changing it to Website: Because i've already got a chan:reddit knocking about)
Chapter: (To sort big things where page: just isn't enough. I use it for suits in a deck of tarot cards(Clubs, hearts, wands, etc) and for seasons in long running shows, like ATHF)
Characters: (Both fictional and nonfictional, merging the Person: tag on the repo into it. Weather they go into Character: or Creator: is on a case by case basis)
Country: (Which i just made because i'm sick and tired of not having something to tag /pol/ memes with)
Creator: (Same as Character: but entirely for the people who create things. I also like to use it to narrow down a Character: tag. For instance, Creator: Moonman refers exclusively to any music track with Moonman in it's name but Character: Moonman can also refer to things like memes and reaction images that bear his likeness.)
Emotion: (Which is a generic pothole for reaction images for whatever purpose.)
Filename: (Which is by far the biggest one on here, with 72000 files tagged with it in some way. Fairly easy to manage, though. I can always tell which ones are mine and which ones are automated or taken from the repo, because mine have a space in between the file and the namespace. And now i know, having said that, that somebody's going to start copying me and doing that for themselves, and it'll all be ruined.)
Firearm: (Just like Aircraft: but for funs)
Genre: (Which is parented to Medium: music. I don't use it all that often, and the ones i have could be all moved to memes without issue. Stuff like Vaporwave and Synthwave, they have a style beyond just the music.)

9850fa No.5195


Mashup: (Which is mainly for Youtube poops, Siivagunner, Otomads and the like. Trying to distingush between them is a fool's errand, so most of the time i just use Tagme)
Medium: (Which is where i put things ranging from mimetype, framerate, to things like Infographic and Greentext, or the year a painting was created. Anything that refers to the way an image is presented rather then the image itself)
Meme: (Sometimes i'm not really sure if there is a line between what's a Meme: and what's a Series:. These are the questions that keep me up at night.)
Reaction: (All of which are parented to specific Emotion:'s. E.g. Reaction: laughter is parented to Emotion: joy. They're just to emphasize, or to show the difference between a laughing image or a dancing image. On the face of it, they're both joy, but you use them in pretty different contexts.)
Page: (Like Chapter, but for page. I went through this one day and changed everything to "page: Part 00x". No matter if it had three parts or three hundred, to standardize everything. It works wonders, and if you're reading this, i suggest you do the same. Also why are you reading this monument to autism. Go do your own thing.)
Series: (Both to refer to works that parody or reference a body of work and for things that form a part of a body of work, like a collection of images saved from a specific thread. I have debates with myself sometimes about if i should split these up into 2 different namespaces:, and what should be a Series: and what's more appropriately a Meme: or maybe even having it be unnamespaced. Sometimes i hear screaming and realize it's me.)
Species: (Used to only exist for monstergirl tagging, but has since expanded into actual animals. I'm very careful to call lamias lamias and snakes snakes and to never confuse the two, which is hard.)
Tank: (Just like aircraft: but for tanks)

>Every single tag in my database has a namespace to match.

I do that too. I can't stand unnamespaced tags, they're fucking ugly and my OCD threatens to revolt everytime I even think of adding one.

Mine are:

* art: Any kind of cool serious drawing, it ranges from classical drawn art to D&D illustrations to science fiction landscapes to mecha. Divided by genre and subject like "art:dragons", "art:fantasy beasts", "art:space", "art:cyberpunk", "art:soldiers", "art:man vs beast", etc.

* board: I use this as the largest database partitioning. board:a, board:pol, board:jp, etc

* character: I very rarely use this, I don't like to have a lot of tags cluttering my database, so I only use it for real people (trump, jeb!, alex jones etc) and anime characters that I REALLY like (I have maybe 4 or 5 of those, the rest is all real people)

* creator: obvious tag, but i often autistically reverse search shitton of pictures just to assign creator tags to them, and I often scrape a large amount of galleries just because I liked only one or two pictures

* meme: I just have a shitload of memes in my database. meme:soulless wojak, meme:chaika exploitable, meme:big dogs, meme:biden & anime, meme:finno-korean hyperwar - you name it, I probably have several dozen pictures of it

* monstergirls: I have A FUCKTON of monstergirl pictures, in the tens of thousands range, so it's gotten to the point where I have to differentiate them by species, like monstergirl:jabberwock, monstergirl:dragon etc

* mood: I use this for my reaction pictures. Rather than tagging something as "reaction pic" i just give it a "mood:something" so I can group any of the pictures I'd use as reaction for easy find. For example I have "mood:what the fuck", "mood:ishygddt", "mood:holy fuck" etc00

* series: obvious tag

* type: This is perhaps the weirdest namespace I use, as it's there to distinguish pictures from a meta point of view. Example: type:charts, type:wallpaper, type:wars on wikipedia, type:rule 63, type:fine arts parody, type:american presidential elections 2016, type:manga page, etc

I realize that my way of tagging can get pretty bizarre but it works fantastically for me, as I've never had to think for more than a handful of seconds to be able to search for any picture on my database. I also don't really commit to the tag repo so nobody gets hurt.

How does rsync and free file sync handle files that's have just been moved to different folders?

I've been looking for an intelligent backup program but haven't made much progress.

I guess hydrus renders most of the useless though, no more need to sort/move images sometime after I originally backed them up

Well, rsync is a command line utility so since you don't already know about it I'd suggest you just look into Free File Sync, which is pretty much the normie version. Synchronization software like these usually take a list of files & filesizes/timestamp for both origin and destination, and only change the files that have those different or that are missing. That's much, MUCH faster than your OS' default moving utility, especially if you're using the piece of shit commonly known as Windows.

I wish I could share them, brother, but my connection peaks at 30 kb/s upload.

I can give you a way to collect more though: just get a RSS client, hook it up with 4chan's /jp/'s RSS address, and make it automatically catch the monstergirl thread that happens there. There's always one up anf they change it every two to three days. Feed them to the thread watcher and you'll get more monstergirls that you're able to sort through. It's also good to get a RSS for 8ch.net/monster, though a lot of its content is recycled from the 4chan threads. I can't wait for hydrus' download manager refactoring, I'm gonna have a field day with whole board scraping.

If you don't have a PC that's always on just put the /jp/ RSS on inoreader, apply filters to it, and then put the resulting feed on your RSS reader, because 4chan's RSS is shit and it only shows the latest few threads.

On the upper side, I finally finished absorbing 10 years of lurking and reminded myself how much I liked cirno, on the downside, I was dumb in the beginning and added the filename to the ptr (without comitting, I'm not that dumb) and still have 3k files to go through.

I send the tags to the local repo now, that will allows me to procrastinate through them.

I used to just copy/paste, now I use Hydrus' in-client thing. Is rsync functionally similar to Git then? I might try it. Can I control how many "versions" it saves?

>>5194

Do you know of a utility that you can just dump a bunch of GIFs into and it'll sort them into two subfolders or something, one static, one animated? I mean it would just have to detect the presence of multiple frames, so should be possible. I was thinking about suggesting it for Hydrus, but I figure the feature request list is probably getting too long already.

I haven't committed any tags to the db yet (other than a few one-off tags) because my tagging protocol varies from the tags on the repo a little. Right now I mainly use:

filename:(only for automatically added filenames)
media:(anime, film, drawing, photo, etc...I can't bring myself to use "medium:", it's more technically correct but I associate "media" with "type of file" through long habit)
download:
board:
source:(web addresses, studio names, content creator/actor names, etc, etc, any type of sauce really)
comment:(I should probably switch to "meta" but this is a little more specific. Mostly "needs edit", "needs crop", stuff like that)
ethnicity:(nationality, race, folk identity etc was just too complicated to track so I use this as a catch-all. Black person with obvious French accent and I don't know if they're from France or a former French colony? They get ethnicity:african AND ethnicity:french etc etc)
reaction:(for reaction images/anything I might want to use as one)
content:(sfw,nsfw,lewd, or squick which also carries nsfw)
series: episode: chapter: title: studio: creator: (all as you'd expect)
"facial expression" is just a tag right now that will become expression: similar to reaction and with much overlap, only reaction: can contain memes/catchphrases/specific contexts/outcries, and expression: will be purely for facial expressions. I need to build my own database in case I ever want to do commissions from /aco/ or something, all of the decent ones I find online are "for research purposes only please snail mail us and allow six weeks for shipping" or so on

Then on my "example" pic I have some of the following I haven't really used much yet, mostly for erotica:

clothing:(specific items)
dress:(state of dress, like nude, clothed, topless, bottomless, etc)
location:(either known places or descriptors of settings pictured)
model: (I also sometimes use "person", "performer", "actor", need to find a way to formalize specifics)
pose:
subject:(real vs drawn/animated mostly)

I hate unnamespaced tags too, but a lot of times I need to record sorting info about something I don't have a namespace for or don't know what namespace to use, so I just throw in what I think of as "dirty tags" that are one-off things so just that thread or two, or whatever, comes up when I search it. I'll eventually notice them while sorting/properly tagging files, and fix it, better than leaving the info off.

Did I mention every single file that goes into the inbox gets a "tagme" tag? I'm really sick of autocompleting it, hopefully we get an option to universally apply tags to FUCKING EVERYTHING sometime. It would make more sense to have a tagged:complete added when I tag something to satisfaction (for now), but I like tagme.

I forgot about character: , use it whenever and wherever I can. I even clone it from the repo to local files sometimes just to make sure.

There one i can think of. It's this neat little software i use called Hydrus, ever heard of it?

Run a search for System: mime is gif and then duration: greater then zero, and you'll be able to find what you're looking for. Export all of that to one folder and all of the animated gifs to another and bob's your uncle. It even managed to search out those old two-frame party hard gifs from 2006, so i'm using that for now. For a while, i was using XNview's frame-counting thing to check for screamer gifs and the like, but after being spooked too often, i've moved on.

Yeah, rsync is in many way similar to git. You can make incremental backups of your database if that's your thing. It's a very powerful tool, so you better look up the basics on google. I personally just use "rsync -av –delete <source>/ <origin>".

Try RSSowl. Development has stopped and sometimes some feeds don't register, but for the rest it's fantastic and without rivals. It's also the only reader I know that allows you to automatically open articles in your browser of choice when they match certain filters.

Just use common sense m8. Don't overheat your HDD, don't abuse it, don't drop it. If it's external, don't keep it always connected, and always safely unmount it. Overall, spontaneous bit rot is far less likely than you can imagine.

The only trick you can have is using a RAID system. You can't prevent bit rot on an ontological level, it's just how machines work.

OP here.

Yes it is ZFS. Other solutions like BTR are too under developed and even downright dangerous for data.

>>5234

A single 3TB backup mybook, I assume WD green, sitting on a shelf accrued 7 block errors after six months. All physical sectors green. One visual effect noted in the media but it's a firm reminder.

Even pulled decade and a half old family pictures from a depowered 40GB HDD and found three had gone full fruit salad.

For my usage case and well into the future it would be a nightmare to micromanage my files and comb over hashes manually.

Having redundancy and data integrity built into my file system is incredibly convenient.

Native compression is the cherry on top.

>>5236

Most hardware RAID setups can hardlock you into their solution, and in my case, downright didn't prevent bitrot. There's little documentation on how the controllers actually address content and account for failure so I see them as a stopgap that has worn out it's welcome.

The free cure for what ails data hoarders is here and you should not accept a black box of powered defeat just yet.

ZFS is a moderate roadbump in and of itself.

It throws out everything previously done by file systems and tries something new.

My general usage guide:

When in doubt the default settings are quite sensible.

Turn on async writes and you won't regret it. It's all CoW so if power to your PC cuts, it doesn't matter unless cutting files between pools.

Don't ever lie to ZFS: Run ontop of a hardware RAID, run it in a VM, it prefers whole disk to partitions but partitions are fine too as long as it's not ontop of another file system

Pool your storage: You can create fantastic mixed RAID with it. Want to run three RAID5s with two RAID1s, all pooling storage into a single apparent device, then go for it. It's all round robin read and write!

RAID1 & 10 read performance is miles better than RAID5 & 6 implementations.

Always have parity or redundancy, have no single point of failure, ie: 4 mirrors and an extra single unmirrored drive in a pool, SPoF is the one drive.

No backsies: Once a vdev has been added and the extra storage is in your expanded pool, you cannot go back. Please ensure the choice you have made is correct.

You can still safely shift your data to another pool, destroy and recreate the pool, but this is time wasted.

Unless you run a 32 thread beast with dozens of gigs of RAM and have a disk array then dedup beyond a few hundred gigabytes is a trap. Don't expect speed unless you can feed it.

Dedup shan't be performed without redundancy, for what happens when a chunk of a file mixed into a pot of others experiences rot without parity to correct… Everything else, deduped along with, gets shredded.

lz4 compression is for everyone all the time, zle is for everyone and then some, gzip-1 to 5 is heavy, gzip-9 is madness for typical data.

ZFS on Debian repos is MUCH more up to date than Mint & Ubuntu's fuse packages.

If any of the above makes your head spin, get two drives mirror them and get to saving files. You can always expand later and learn and perhaps tune as you go. The default settings are excellent for general usage.

I use btrfs but this feature is also in zfs: Snapshots!

To all considering ZFS/btrfs, get yourself a backup utility that uses snapshots and send|receive. I use btrbk. It takes periodic snapshots on the local pool and can send them to another pool such as an external USB disk or remote system via ssh.

Snapshots don't save you from bit rot (you need RAID1/RAID-Z for that) but will help you when the database is corrupted by, as far as the OS is concerned, legitimate file ops when a DB update goes wrong or crashes.

Imageboard use is endemic to the NT type. Seriously, before everyone on 4chan's /b/ was retarded liberal maskfags, we'd have threads and literally everyone was INTJ or some INF fuckery or other.

I was INTJ a few years ago, but when I retook both of the tests I know about earlier this year, they both put me as INTP. Not sure what caused the change.

Can confirm unused bandwidth is a waste given how much cool stuff is on the internet for a limited and unpredictable time only, sadly I have too much stuff to do and not enough money to be packing files into drives 24/7.

>>5233

Not ZFS, because it's only used by FreeBSD which is tainted by the SJW menace. ZFS once/if OpenBSD gets it. Other than that, don't fight the entropy, just flow with it. You could use RAID 6 or something, but I never really understood the actual non-autistic practical advantages of RAID 6 over just storing three copies of each file on three different drives instead. So really just save in triplicate if it's important enough to use a little time and three times its filesize in storage.

Last time I was hydrus inbox zero was about 2.5 years ago, I think. Up to 260k archived 117k inbox now, and it only gets worse every week. I use like/dislike ratings to manage some other internal queues and pools.

The overloading is the same for my 'to watch' video folders and 'to play' vidya folder and all my other hobbies. I feel like it has just tipped in the past year or two, that there is so much good stuff now being made (and it being so easily accessible) that it is no longer possible to keep up. I ramped up the amount I work on hydrus in the same time as well, so I also have less free time.

I don't know what we are going to do about it, but I'm comfortable knowing that if the great happening occurs, at least we will be able to catch up on our queues.

I make a backup every week, before I put the release out. FreeFileSync is great. I use it to backup my home network as well every day. My network is nothing clever–just a couple of headless computers in my basement with some hard drives.

I save every file that makes me smile in every thread I read. It shakes out to about 200 per day (which I send to an import folder that does its thing in the background), but I also use the thread watcher a bunch, and there must be a lot of dupes in there that I never notice disappearing. I've lost track of exactly how my collection/life is spinning out of control, but at least it is doing so inside an ordered database.

I add tags for character names and creators, usually. That's what I search for most.

50/50 archive/delete is about my experience as well. When I did my first import and filter of my old 'unsorted good images' folder, which was probably around hydrus version 7 jej, it was about 75/25. I was amazed at some of the incredibly shit stuff I had saved over the years and must have thought 'oh yeah, that's good' at some point. I remember mp3s being worth more when they were only coming in at 4KB/s, so maybe our tastes have changed with our bandwidth.

>>5225

I lost an unbacked-up drive when I was younger. I know that pain so well. It feels great to have full backup of everything now. Absolutely worth the investment.

INFJ. We aren't so common as INTXs, but we enjoy and participate in imageboards in similar ways. I've always hoarded, and now I have hydrus, I obsessively make favourites that I often go back to and think about.

I did it first about ten years ago, I think? Read all about it at the time and felt very strongly that INFJ matched how I worked internally. I just did another one of those internet tests and came out INFJ again, so maybe it matches me or maybe I'm tilting the test unconsciously. I have often wondered if I am really INT, but I think I got hooked on computers by accident and should have been a medical research doctor or something.

I love writing software, but I am less comfortable with and interested in the fine details of coding–the mallocs and the i<<8s–than I am with iteration and database tables and systems that achieve specific jobs that end up with something cool happening on screen. I enjoy python very much for its higher level "forget all that printer driver shit, let's go crazy with objects" approach.

I constantly think about how systems and people work, and I like to talk about my and others' feelings. I get my self-esteem from helping others and consistently burn myself out trying to fix everything within reach.

Well, I have just started to move all the doujins and comic books I had stored in hydrus to happypanda.

>>5279

That kinda leads to the question: is something like 'export to separate folders based on common tag' planned? And is it to be done in near future? Or should I get ready for a lot of 'export->cut->paste' routine? That's because the happypanda only supports tagging via separate directories (it's kind of a weird frankenstein between hydrus and using folders, if 20 pages are in one directory - they are one comic; happypanda does not look at filenames and neither can it interpret them).

Or if anyone could suggest a way of doing this I would be grateful. To be honest, I only really care about the titles, series and characters, maybe sometimes creators, not really interested in any specific tags.

As for INFJs, most I've met enjoy complicated systems and languages, but it usually manifests as horoscopes and other esoterica. There's an embarassing lack of rigour, one which I'm absolutely not immune from.

I love python, and I encourage all programmers to try it a bit, just in case it matches them as well as it does me. It can't run fast enough for a proper game or anything, but you can knock up a difficult and powerful script in no time at all.

>>5328

>>5329

Yeah, I generally recommend you do more complicated filename-based filtering and moving around in a script. Export everything to the same location with some clever filenames and then cut them up and move them around based on whatever criteria you like. You'll be able to figure out and deploy what you want much faster than I can add support for it. Let me know if there's any hydrus metadata you need exported to filename or a .txt or whatever.

There's no point being autistic about it, the PTR has gone too far already. There's tons of garbage tags. A while ago a tag database of ripped tags from Hentai foundry had used broken parsing, splitting some tags by spaces, leading to tons of one word tags that are useless. And somehow many of them ended up in the PTR.

I mean, it doesn't really hurt your searching capabilities if images have a bunch of trash tags, it's worse when they are mistagged with valid tags that aren't applicable. That will mess up your searches.

Your best bet is to add the worst ones to your censor list, try to clean it if when you see it, and ignore the rest.

Personally, I'd prefer if vernacular name for animal were not namespaced, and then parented to the scientific name sorted by phyum:tag order:tag, ect.

That's not possible without the ability to group namespace or the ability to show/hide name space groups.

I'd hardcore love it if people learned when species is correct.

>species:mammal

Yeah fuck you too, get rekt in an eternal ice tomb.

In the same vein, I don't reli like the creator:tag namespace. It would be fine for a name space group though.

AKA:

[creator group]

;define the color of the name space contained in the group

;define if this group is shown or hidden

;is presented together as a block in the tag list.

artist:tag|alias:tag|originalJPname:tag

editor:tag

or

[identity group]

;likewise

character:tag|surname

person:tag

cosplay:tag

I can't even imagine having to do this without this filter. Currently have 155000+ files, mostly pics obviously, and counting. I'm thinking out of these 31000 exact matches I'll end up with only around 5000 pics.

I don't know, downloading over 10k images with a half-assed attempt at importing tags and only getting something like a date, then being a complete retard and committing them to the ptr instead of your own tags?

There's 12,726 files with that tag, period, the other ~4k seem to be at least half decently tagged. I don't have any files that have the tag so I can't tell you what's going on with the ones that only have that one tag.

i try to tag a couple hundred pictures everyday, but im not even chipping my fuckhuge porn folder.

so much untagged shit, and i haven't opened my porn "social media" in weeks, i must have around 1k new pictures on each by now, but since there is no parser for these sites, i have to do all downloads manually.

some pictures i barely even tag, i just drop a folder, select everything, throw in the name of the series or character that folder was dedicated to, and call it evens. Because as far as im interested, i just need a quick way to find my pictures, im not really that interested in tagging every single fucking little detail (like the color of the socks or the hair, who cares).

i find it a little frustrating when there's like 5 different misspelled tags for the same series/character or they just throw it in there, no "character:" or "creator:" or "series:", fucking check your spelling you niggers, im sick of having to petition tags for namespacing/typos.

Oh my god!!!! I just discovered this program from a rec in 4chan's stupid question thread on /g/, and I am so excited to get started. I barely know anything about tech, but I save a hell of a lot of porn. My tastes are rather vanilla, though.

In my gross tech ignorance, I once day just felt I'd found a porn image I really, unironically liked. Wasn't sure how to sort it beyond my broadly-named ~5 porn folders. So I created a specific folder for it, and put a shortcut to the image in it. And that started my really inefficient sorting method.

At this point my old folders are laughably broad, where right now I have folders for pubic hair or no; how low panties etc. are worn; whether a blush is from lust or embarrassment; layers of clothing and whether they're opaque or translucent or show bare skin and which layer is where; "erect nipples" defined as erect areolae, or erect nipples, or color without necessarily any distinction otherwise… It's basically unlimited perversion, even if my sorting methods were dumb. Until now. Thank you based hydrus_dev- may my eyes through which I see sexy things continue to flourish from your work!

I've done the same text online twice where your type is displayed alongside a sort of drawing depicting I suppose an extreme of the type.

I've gotten INTJ both times, but at this point in my life (that was 3-4 yrs ago) I imagine I'm more extroverted. I was never stoic and calculated, but back then I was depressed without having any context for what happiness was. So I was pursuing reason. I would share that explicitly with people, and be called autistic in different words, when "autism" wasn't in the vocabulary of most. Eventually though I found what I wanted, so I was able to finally know comfort, and then explore redundancy beyond that. So now I'm extroverted, I know I am. I don't necessarily have faith in anyone, but I value more the act of working to be on the same page with someone rather than my being alone with my pursuits, where even my reaching out is blunt and shares no common denominators with what a normal person understandably considers normal.

Reading this thread it sounds like most hydrus users fall to making ridiculous hoards with auto-downloaders grabbing every image on 12 different boorus.

Now I feel like a deviant for only using it to organize my reaction images. I haven't set up any auto-importers except one for a folder on my pc where i will save anime/manga crops or sometimes download images from threads as I browse.

I'm kind of at loss on how to make the whole thing work

It's easy enough with the booru tag parser do just drop them in hydrus and feel satisfied that at least they have minimal but proper tagging, when before i had to manually drop it in either the series or artist folder and leave it there forever

But i can't seem to get how i want to browse in hydrus, i can't have tidy collections by series or artist, because many images have multiple series or artists and so hydrus makes collections for all those instances

Not that it was really in order with folders, but random browsing was a bit easier

I know that feel. If it makes you feel any better, sometimes it's not available. I discovered yandex a few months ago, and binged a few times on how it recommends images of the same pose if you feed it a single image. And a lot of them were tumblr images, but renaming the _1280 or _500 etc. to _raw never provided anything, ever.

On twitter the :large can be changed to :orig, too. Imgur is horrible since accessing from mobile gives you _d images that are scaled down, and I once managed to have an original filename imgur image not be the full res. Wasn't able to recreate it, though. These systems and their lack of communication just want to fuck people.

>In my gross tech ignorance, I once day just felt I'd found a porn image I really, unironically liked. Wasn't sure how to sort it beyond my broadly-named ~5 porn folders. So I created a specific folder for it, and put a shortcut to the image in it. And that started my really inefficient sorting method.

Ok. So this post was me. It was actually horrifying converting this sorting method to Hydrus, since Hydrus couldn't fetch target images from a shortcut fed to it. I opened a folder full of shortcuts in Irfanview, but it saw nothing. My only recourse as far as I could tell at that point was to manually open each and every shortcut in a browser (my choice was Firefox,) and manually resave each and every image. Which was exactly what I did for the first 305 folders, and 9,652 files (shortcuts; I just highlighted everything then looked at Windows properties for this number). Until I asked for help in 4chan /g/'s /sqt/ thread, and an anon replied saying he'll take a crack at it. It was like that scene in Bleach, where that asshole character offered to save Rukia, but seconds later said he was joking, so Rukia lost resolve she never knew she still had, and she screamed in anguish on the spot. I basically didn't want to do this anymore after this anon showed up. I had 62 folders left, and 4,107 files (shortcuts) left, since I was going chronologically reversed order, so the older ones were more dense with sorting, and poor sorting.

MAKE BACKUPS BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING

Anon told me to run the following in powershell:

https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/g/thread/65734824/#65747352


#must be run from admin prompt as it modified the registry
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned;

And then run the following in powershell as well*:

(*note: "Set $simulate = $false when you want to actually run it, $simulate = $true will just output the actions it will take." He says this alongside an earlier draft of the following script)

https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/g/thread/65747475/#65747990


$simulate = $true;
$directory = "D:\inc\test shortcuts";

$shortcuts = gci -Path $directory -Recurse -Filter *lnk;
$shell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell;
foreach ($shortcut in $shortcuts) {
$link = $shell.CreateShortcut($shortcut.FullName);
echo "copy $($link.TargetPath) $($shortcut.Directory.FullName)";
echo "rm $($shortcut.FullName)";
if ($simulate -ne $true) {
try {
copy -LiteralPath $link.TargetPath $shortcut.Directory.FullName -ErrorAction Stop;
rm -LiteralPath $shortcut.FullName;
} catch {
write-host -ForegroundColor Red "Error replacing shortcut, skipping.`n$($_.Exception)";
}
}
}

This works perfectly for turning shortcuts into their original target files, provided the shortcuts aren't broken. The original targets are still left intact, so I was able to use his earlier script, give feedback of it failing, to which he amended it, and I was able to run the better script without problems. The only thing is the shortcuts folder itself is overwritten, and any broken shortcuts are lost, hence why you should make a backup before attempting this, so the data is not lost forever.

I realize literally no one in the history of time will ever sort things this way, but just for archival purposes I wish to share it, since I googled for literally an hour- the archives there tell the tale- and I found no answer for my situation. In the end, Hydrus might one day undermine this problem, so even my unique case will have extreme ease converting to Hydrus. Today, though, I needed this script. Also, full disclosure, I am the anon from the Q&A thread >>8720 who delayed switching to Hydrus for four months, since 4chan's /g/ introduced me to it, and their elitist bullying attitude made me try extremely hard to make sure I wouldn't fuck up on my own, since they would be so apprehensive to helping me if I needed help. I'm too shy to read the reply I got in that thread. I'm too shy, also, to read anon's reply to my thanking him for the script working on /g/, since others seeing my autistic folder names for my shortcut sorting (which I slightly shared to him) makes me cold sweat. I'm a ball of anxiety, really. Thanks for your tolerating me, if you do.

I need to cut off my internet and sort this shit before I end up with thousands of images with only 1 or 2 tags

Wait, you had folders for various tags, and if an image fit into multiple tags, you would have the actual image in one folder, and then you would have shortcuts in the other folders? Wow I am impressed honestly, I never thought of something like that. I used to just put them in the folder I thought was the best match, then eventually gave up and literally dumped everything into one big folder. It worked kinda well honestly, I would sort it by date created and then recent porn would be at the top, and as I went down it would show me older stuff. But I had to remember how far down to scroll for particular porn.

Anyway my system:everything is 107,970. Almost completely untagged. The good news is I mostly collect loli, so it doesn't grow too fast. I just need to do a ton of Gelbooru searches to rip all the tags.

I've been using Hydrus for a year and I don't see the point at all. I thought it would tag images I add automatically but it's only doing it when directly downloading from boorus. So the majority of my images are just sitting there unorganized and I'll never have the time to tag them all myself.

Am I missing something?

Most of your images are not the original but duplicate of various type from the image boards.

AKA iqdb and saucenao all of them, welcome to hell.

But is there any ways to at least tell the program to look for the images' md5 or something so it automatically find the tags?

Did you connect your database to the public tag repository? That's how you get tags for existing images.

I read that in the guide but the key didn't work. I'm also worried about how secure this is, especially when I didn't understand what that would get me exactly. Does it really allow the hydrus to tag my collection?

Is there a key that works somewhere?

Yes if the md5 of your files is in the PTR they will get tags.

Go to the help menu > I don't know what I'm doing > just set up some repositories for me, and hydrus will set up the PTR for you.

It will take a long time to sync, so instead of waiting I'd recommend you download the update files from here: https://cuddlebear92.github.io/Quicksync/

Then you can import them with services > import repository update files.

It is secure because you download all the tags, even for files you don't have, so no one knows what files you have. Unfortunately because of that your database will increase in size a lot, to about 10GB.

The PTR mainly uses a booru tagging style, but it should be noted it is currently kind of messy with some useless/bad tags. But you can set up tag censorship/sibling rules to get rid of those if it bothers you.
