I am not the author of the previous comment so my view could be different. But I have thought about it. With tags, you could have got one note in multiple directories. Imagine I have found an interesting blog post on HN about SQLite in python. It could be problematic to decide is it more about python of Sqlite? Tags could look like this:

python, databases, SQL, SQLite, $date, FromHN, beautiful_site (I liked the look of this blog)

or in proposed system

/IT/Databases/SQL/Sqlite /IT/Python/libraries/SQLite /IntrestingHNposts/2022/July /beutiful_site

the difference between "just folders" and the proposed system is that you could have one note in multiple folders. Which gives you more flexibility in assigning notes to its topics. But it is still more structural than tags which could easily turn into an unpenetrable list of random words.

To be fair you could also achieve it with symlinks.
