I've used a self-hosted Booru for all of my image sorting. It took me roughly 2 months to upload and tag 53,000 images and another week of cleaning up rarely used or redundant tags. Since I used it outside of the Artist/Series/Character hierarchies my Artist/Series/Character hierarchies refer to Topic/Subject/Details.

For example, visualizations of various algorithms would be filed under:

Topic: Computer Science / Subjects: Algorithms, Visualizations / Data: {Algorithm Name}

By personal restriction - something may only be filed under one topic, no more than three subjects, and can have as much data as is relevant. It gets stored under what I believe to be the primary subject.

The #1 problem is I add files to my filesystem without uploading and tagging them to the Booru. Also, since the only open-source Booru software I could find is quite dated/buggy, I'm often fighting the Booru for how I use it. Now that I think about it, this might be a good problem for me to solve myself.
