Is it possible to add options for aliases, categories? There are just too many tags

What do you mean by aliases & categories? Many people use tags that include separators -- e.g. location/food, location/hike or whatever works for you. Obsidian properly auto-completes these kind of tags. About changing the icons, see this part of the Readme. I'm afraid that setting icons is currently not as user-friendly as it deserves to be, and that either myself or some other contributor will soon have the time to improve it.

Suppose, I have 10 trips and each trip has a theme: 20210707xxxx travel plan which will pass through several states, each with a number of attractions. Using tags would produce many tags, and if I use location/xxxx, it would be difficult to distinguish between each trip plan. image

Assuming #location/tripOne, #location/tripTwo or #trip/toSomePlace, #trip/toOtherPlace etc are not good-enough ways to distinguish in some cases, I definitely see the value in providing more ways to set icons. The mechanism of rules that override each other can actually be applied to many other criteria - e.g. some rules can select by tags and other rules can select by the note name or other properties. That's a useful feature to implement.
