I had roughly the same goals ( archive search 2 decades of mail) but approached it completely different: I export every mail to PDF with a strict naming convention.

  • Backend: No mailserver, just storage and backup for files.
  • Search: based on filenames FSearch and Void tools Everything. I could use local indexing on pdf content.
  • Frontend: a pdf viewer.

Alternative idea .... Someone uses OpenConext to provide a federation hub connecting minetest servers with identity providers. You can even call it LuantiID.

I think he meant save the actual notes themselves. Often necessary for sync engines to replicate the notes to other devices and manage version control.

Because the actual export, transform and loading of multiple banks and accounts data is cumbersome its holding me back.

So curious to read about GoCardless.

But is that also for consumer?

"He himself is a billionaire" ... Glad the forker made that clear in the first paragraph.

Employer on a job meeting on an employer device that is. Clients? Not so much ...

It seems like a no-brainer but actually no.

Quick test would be for example if there are:

  • at the beginning of the music library a lot of "no artist name" "no album name" entries, so the foldername isn't used at all.
  • a lot of artist with their own entry with just one album and one song because the actual albumartist collaborated on one song with them and the mp3 resides in the same folder but they got split in the library.
  • if the player doesn't show music which isn't part of Playlist.

So my conclusion is their are even 3 types and corresponding mangement:

  • Folder based requires file management
  • Meta data based requires tag management
  • Playlist based requires Playlist management

Often players make combinations also I guess.

A music player which "just plays whatever is in a directory". Very handy for people having a media folder with artist folders and album subfolders. For the type of people, like myself, who focus more on tidy and disciplined storage of files instead of managing ID3 metadata etc

Not for Photos specific but F2 seems to fit some of your use cases. https://github.com/ayoisaiah/f2

Even can use Exif fields as variables in the naming scheme. https://github.com/ayoisaiah/f2/wiki/Built-in-variables#3-exif-variables

I don't know, but I guess the reason why it isn't done yet is because nobody perceives it as a problem. It would require a repository plugin to install plugins I think. But it all comes down to plugin distribution and deployment. Mostly if you want something outside the default repository you can just upload it to your own install / stack. If a developer provide alternative download ways. Like a github release for example.
