Copying this from Reddit (I still get the daily emails). Since I no longer post there, I figured I would ask here, and include my prediction: Will be more popular, possibly in stable release. Still won’t be able to rotate photos natively.

    If the internet disappears or you lose access to it for some reason, you can still see your photos.

      You can survive a day trip without access to your photos. We managed just fine before smartphones brought that practice into the mainstream.

          That would be an insane amount of phone storage. I don’t think a single available smart phone could sync an entire professional library of photos. Especially considering how large each photo is.

          A professional photographer doesn’t use cloud storage to store the GBs of RAW files from their shoots

            Why not? They absolutely should be using something like Backblaze. In fact someone who has digital photos as their business would be dumb not to use cloud storage.

              You’re not uploading to Backblaze as you shoot photos. You’re dumping the SD cards, or saving RAW files directly, onto a fileserver or computer of some sort.

              Nobody in their right mind would use Immich or GPhotos for that kind of thing, which is what this chain was about. Backblaze is a completely different scenario, for backing up data after the fact.
