I just gave up and mimicked tags with symlinks and subfolders. ie "foo" is tagged "todo" if there's a symlink to it in "Tags/todo/". It works surprisingly well

It works surprisingly well, since I can manage it with standard shell scripting.
- redbar0n 4y agoInterestingly, this is effectively a tag hierarchy (orthogonal to the content), which is also a DAG. https://twitter.com/mikeybtags/status/1582509479806980096?s=21&t=RKrfPXQYcf-Ez9SEatS54A https://twitter.com/mikeybtags/status/1582509479806980096?s=... I wonder what disadvantages such a tag hierarchy has? I imagine enforcing the acyclicity is hard/effortful. Using (inherently hierarchical) folders (with no symlinks for folders) enforces the acyclicity constraint, and avoids diamond issues, so that’s neat.
