• Searching for a media tagging website like Tagspace but self-hosted and free

  Hydrus? It's not quite true "self-hosted" (more of a standalone program with the ability to be configured to accept external api requests) but with the api and external programs set to interface with it, you can sort of set it up that way. https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/.

• Embed url into downloaded file

  If you want a concrete recommendation, all I can say without knowing exactly what you're doing is: you should at the very least consider solutions other than editing the file. This could mean sidecar files (e.g. info.txt), containers with metadata (e.g. warc), database applications (e.g. hydrus, even though it's a mess), etc. Source: over 2 years ago

• Image library sorting solution.

• Community Q: Any recommendations for hosting FlipFlip media non-locally?

  However, I did recently add support for Hydrus which should be able to fulfill your needs (albeit with some setup work). Though I don't use Hydrus myself, I know a few members of the community who have their images hosted on a personal Hydrus server, which can be accessed remotely. The only downside of this is the need for personal hosting, but it would allow you to access your collection from anywhere, allow your... Source: about 3 years ago
