a tip for those of us with local libraries, there is a Picard plugin (thread here) for submitting genre tags (and other tags like moods, styles, keywords, and more, if desired) made by @Victini. just look for Submit Folksonomy Tags in the list of plugins~ (it does require loading everything you wanna submit and manually running the plugin from the context menu, but I think it’s quite easy myself~)
I understand the reasoning here, but I want to be sure that genres are still visible on the YiM 2024 (even if they’re not so front-and-center). if they get left off, I could see them becoming forgotten by many users and not getting the egg for their chicken
I’ve actually had this same idea myself, and almost made a ticket for it (but haven’t yet…)
another thought about genres, I think part of the issue is oftentimes you’ll have users tagging genres as well as subgenres on the same entity (for example, tagging rock, soft rock, and pop rock on Rumors by Fleetwood Mac*). fairly frequently the supergenre has more tags than the subgenre. I wonder if it might make sense to filter out the supergenres when this happens, perhaps that might improve the genre part of YiM? might be worth testing at least~
