So for 98% of what I already I have, I won't need to modify or add date information. Thankfully the vast majority of my pictures and videos have their creation date embed in their EXIF / metatdata. If it includes its own database mechanism, perhaps it will store the files in a way that is efficient (thinking of how squid proxy creates and maintains its cache directories) but not very friendly outside of it.

The main sticking point might end up being the number of files in a directory and how any software will handle them smoothly or efficiently or any related limits. I would have believed that symbolic links would work just as well as a hard link which I have rarely used myself. There are plenty of ways to sort, and one could even use a separate database to index things. Speaking of thumbnails and index pages, and so forth, image viewers may have their own method of showing an image directory such as 'Visual Schnauzer' in xv, and feh can create an index page as well do other things.

The other big question for me to answer is (6.) how do I share them in such a way that it's easy to use for my family? I'm thinking Nextcloud might fit the bill but I'm also considering Piwigo if I can figure out how to get it up and running on FreeNAS. That just addresses the physical location and organisation of the files. Should I use hardlinks and do both 3 and 4?.all pictures) in one, single folder? The upside of it would be that everything would be in chronological order but the downside is having a folder with several thousand files. Should I have all the files of a given type (e.g.I'm leaning toward no, as this'd mean that family events that take place at the end and beginning of a month, such as the Christmas period or a vacation, would be in seperate folders.
should I have sub-folders for each year? each month? etc.
I also be renaming everything so that all the files start with the date they were created (YYYY-MM-DD_HH.MM.SS), so that I can sort everything chronologically. There's some unrelated weirdness with the current Dataset that means that I'll be creating a new Dataset and moving files to it as I sort them. There is two things I'm set on though, first being that I' ll be creating a new Dataset. I'm finally gonna tackle the jumbled, duplicate filled mess that is my Pictures_and_Videos Dataset but I'm undecided on how to do it. I'd very much like to hear who all of you organise your family pictures and videos, and how you and your family view them?
