Hydrus Network #12 Anonymous Board volunteer 09/24/2025 (Wed) 18:29:57 No. 24277
This is a thread for releases, bug reports, and other discussion for the hydrus network software. The hydrus network client is a file-management application written for Anon and other internet-fluent media nerds who have large file collections. It browses with tags instead of folders, a little like a booru on your desktop. If they wish, users can easily share tags anonymously through a public server. Everything is free, no ads, and privacy is the first concern. If you have 10,000+ files and cannot find anything, hydrus might help! I am the hydrus developer. I am continually working on the software and try to put out a new release every Wednesday by 8pm EST. Past hydrus imageboard discussion, and these generals as they hit the post limit, are being archived at >>>/hydrus/ . Hydrus is powerful, complicated, and messy. It is not for everyone. If you would like to learn more, please check out the extensive help and getting started guide here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6ng_bGozSo windows zip: https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/download/v640/Hydrus.Network.640.-.Windows.-.Extract.only.zip exe: https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/download/v640/Hydrus.Network.640.-.Windows.-.Installer.exe linux tar.zst: https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/download/v640/Hydrus.Network.640.-.Linux.-.Executable.tar.zst I had a great week. There's a mix of work. v636 was the last release with a macOS App. Please check that release, https://github.com/hydrusnetwork/hydrus/releases/tag/v636 , for information on how to convert a macOS App install to a source install! Full changelog: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/changelog.html new UI navigation Thanks to a user, we have several new UI navigation quality of life features: A normal media viewer now has a 'show random' button in the top hover window, next to the previous/next stuff. It does a pure random navigation, not a shuffle. Right-clicking the button will undo! The Main GUI's 'pages' menu now has a 'history' submenu, which tracks the tabs you have recently gone through, in that order. Users who use multiple simultaneous media viewers have a new shortcut to highlight the media viewer's current media+page from the media viewer, this time without closing the media viewer. duplicates options->duplicates has a new 'auto-commit completed batches of this size or smaller' setting. It defaults to '1', so if you get a 1/1 group, you'll now just click through it, no annoying interstitial commit prompt. You can try boosting it to 3 or 5 if you like, or just turn it off. The 'show some random pairs' button is now nicely asynchronous and will not block the UI. Duplicates auto-resolution has better OR support inside 'test A or B' comparators. There's two new hardcoded comparators, for 'both files have the same "has exif/icc profile" value'. And there's another new comparator that does an OR of a list of comparators it owns. I've used some of this tech to re-do and merge the suggested auto-resolution rules a little. We are narrowing in on what I want this system to look like for 'launch'. If you have been following this stuff closely, please check the changelog. some other stuff Huge file deletes should be a bit smoother, and if they take a long time, a file progress popup appears. Export Folders get two new checkboxes to handle sidecar file regeneration, either just on the next run or on every run. If you are a downloader creator, check the changelog. I worked on a bunch of technical stuff. The Client API can now fetch potential duplicate pairs with a sort and 'group mode'. next week
[Expand Post] I want a boring cleanup week. There's some help documentation I want to get to, as well.

Hello /t/ hydrus network users. I haven't lurked here much so jumping in for immediate self-promo is probably a bad idea. But anywho, I wrote a webshit client for your hydrus network setups. This seems to be the best venue to reach hydrus network users, so here I am. The software is available here: https://github.com/hydrui/hydrui - and hosted on hydrui.dev. I wrote this because I run hydrus network on a headless linux box and haven't been satisfied with the different solutions for remoting to it. I still use xpra, but I've been using hydrui and hydrus companion for a whole lot of my hydrus network usage these days. I have zero clue how this will hold up to more serious usage than mine, but I hope someone finds it useful. I don't really have anything in particular to gain here, i'm grateful for hydrus network and wanted to contribute something to the ecosystem.
