Description

Describe the feature you'd like to request

I run a bakery, so I have thousands of photos of food/bakery/staff at work and so on. Smart tagging is immensely helpful here.

However, not all tags are useful, even if they were correct...

Describe the solution you'd like

I would never need a tag of snails, or many other things which I can see my photos have been tagged with, for example:

  • bear
  • beetle
  • bird
  • boat

etc. Even if there does happen to be a photograph of a bear, I don't need to know about it.
Looking through the tags that have been auto-assigned, I am only interested in a few, such as: food, kitchen, outdoor, indoor, bread.

I would love to be able to either whitelist or blacklist tags. Perhaps blacklisting would be more useful, I could spend thirty minutes going through the tags that have been created and blacklisting one that I don't like.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I can't think of any alternatives, at the moment it seems to be all tags or no tags.
