The tag system is one of the things I think could be improved in some way, but I have no idea how. The amount of tags you can have on a post feels somewhat limiting and I'm not too big of a fan of the community tag system in the first place, but at the same time the amount of tags you can have does limit how much someone can abuse it.

On Tumblr and Twitter, when you repost something you can change/add/remove any of the tags as you see fit. That would be interesting for here but would be pretty easy to abuse without complicating everything 100x.

I'm also interested in what can be done with what amouseinmyhouse suggested with tags (reminds me a lot of personal tags).
