I wonder if a static site generator kind of thing would be the sweet
spot for this. Just being able to tag a file with multiple tags and
other metadata, and have appropriate index pages generated, without
duplication of the bigger files.

If you take a moment to visit tanelorn.city/library/ you'll find that Ihaven't been duplicating the texts. They all live in a texts/directory, and then I link to them from multiple indexes asappropriate. For example, Emma Goldman's _Anarchy and Other Essays_appears in both "anarchism.gemini" and "feminism.gemini".

Sounds like a good idea to me. Do you have a place you'd prefer to
host such a repo?

I'm tempted to use SourceHut because I'm familiar with it, but it hasthe potential to be a huge repository. While I'm a paying customer (butonly $5 a month) I don't want to put an unreasonable amount of strainon the service.

GitHub might be more convenient for potential contributors, but I'm notsure I should entrust this to a Microsoft-controlled service.
