Proposal

The tag fotoshi=* could offer a similar parallel to other street-level imagery provider tags. Fotoshi has feature IDs (FIDs) and photo IDs so perhas fotoshi:feature=* and fotoshi:photo=* would be useful.

Fotoshi also offers short URLs:

• Place: https://fto.sh/p/TXLpidn0
• Photo: https://fto.sh/i/bR4JFx5b

The share codes after /p/ and /i/ refer to the specific place or image as a compressed version of the longer original ID. The place ID or share code effectively can link an OSM entity to a gallery of photos that are associated to that OSM ID, removing the need to add multiple fotoshi:photo=* tags for all photos over time.

Fotoshi feature or photo IDs could be attached to nodes, ways, areas, relations.
