Thank you that is really helpful! I’ll look into it! It’s probably a bit of work until it is a smooth workflow but I’m willing to try it. Maybe then I can finally ditch Lightroom :)

Thanks! I don’t know how plugins for digiKam work but that would probably be a good point to start. Though I think I have not enough time at the moment look at this more thoroughly. Sometime maybe :)

Ideally I would love to have the votes synced back to digiKam, especially if it’s about sorting out hundreds of photos. But that sounds like a workable solution until I found or developed a plugin, that can do this. Thank you!

I also want to make the switch away from Lightroom and it looks like that you here might have the solution for my problem. The Lightroom feature, where I can import everything on my PC and then sync these “smart previews” to their cloud and then hand out a link or just a tablet to my wife, friends or anyone, makes everything so much easier. They can then decide which photos they want to keep or be deleted and also label those, which I should develop first. Is there a FOSS (or at least non-Adobe) solution that would give me similar possibilities? I’m not afraid of hosting something myself.

What services do you think are worth letting them violate my rights to my personal information?

Oh yes please make Meta pull all their crap out of the EU. I can’t wait for it!

I know it’s not the point of this post but holy cow is that an atrocious AI image.
