what is your linux workflow?
@photography

I moved to linux about a year ago and have been putting off my photography for some time.
Im now motivated to get back into it and have been trialing some workflows and accidentally deleting all my pictures in the process, luckily I had a backup.

currently my workflow is to use rapid photo downloader, although I ran into an issue with that not being able to load some old dng images but they seem to work fine in darktable.

then I was using dark table only but I deleted all my photos somehow by using the import tool I guess incorrectly,

now Im using digikam for managing my entire library since it feels like it is much quicker than darktable at doing that, and with a selfhosted mysql I can use it on multiple machines, then when I want to edit I just have it open in darktable, but I dont see the edits in digikam afterward.

    Also interested in this topic. I have an old windows 10 PC that’s not connected to the internet and is solely used for Lightroom, Photoshop, etc. However, I’d like to move everything to my Linux machines that I use daily.

    Would also be nice to have a program that can quickly convert ARW (Sony raw) files to jpeg for easy sharing if I don’t need to post process them

      yeah Im using digikam right now mainly as a lightroom replacement, but the editing on there isnt really robust but for rotating, cropping and converting to jpg to share it has a neat batch edit feature for that
