so i've been searching for a long time for an image tagging software, there are some tools out there, some are electron based so no thanks, then there's Hydrus which is actually very similar to what this does, but the GUI is horrible and the installation is way more complicated. I created a docker compose file and I was running Blombooru in a few minutes. So if anyone was looking for something like this to organize their system, please give it a try because it is really good!

The etymology is a bit different from that. Otaku does mean "your house" (important distinction: it's always the second person's house, not your own), but it's also used figuratively as a formal way to refer to your family or just you. There was a culture, at least in the 70s and 80s, for enthusiasts in non-mainstream fields of interests, whether that be ~~TV manga~~ anime, science-fiction, wargaming etc., to talk to each other in a weirdly formal way, so they kept calling each other "otaku".
