    Cryptee is a document encryption and storage service. TagSpaces a file categorization tool. They might have some overlapping features but one isn't an alternative for the other.

    Eagle doesn't manage files. It creates bitmap copies of photos and stores them in a separate directory system and lets the user manipulate those.

    TagSpaces is NOT a note-taking app. It's a file tagging app. Completely unrelated.

    QOwnNotes supports taking notes in MarkDown like TagSpaces. It allows local note storage. It supports tagging. It does not have management capabilities of images and such like TagSpaces. It has a better implemented tagging system (unless you have Sidecart files in TagSpaces) but how it manages them could be more visually appealing. QOwnNotes is written in Qt/C++. TagSpaces is written in JavaScript.

    TagSpaces isn't a note-taking app. One of its lowest supported features is adding notes to documents, images, and folder hidden in sidecar files. If you create a text file in a different program you can use TagSpaces to attach a note to that text document but you might as well just you the text document because it is a more robust note taking tool than TagSpaces.

    Keepmark is a task/to-do manager with task tagging features. TagSpaces is primarily a file manager.

    Ie, I can create a task for "Writing documentation" and tag the task as "Marketing", all in Keepmark… The docx file of the documentation, however, is tagged by Tagspaces
