Linux photogs, help me out. What does your workflow look like? What apps do you use?

I’ve found that digikam is really good for managing my keywords and metadata, and organising photos post shoot, but the image editing is limited.

And using separate image editing software leads to problems, because my camera’s raw files (.cr3) aren’t very well supported.

I can make it work, by using Lightroom online, but it’s not exactly an integrated system due to its cloud based design.

I’ve tried running Lightroom in a VM, but ran in to trouble giving the VM access to my GPU…

So those who have made it work, what does it look like for you?

    That just looks like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

    People tend to be most productive with tools they’re familiar with, regardless of which tool is actually “better”. I figure avoiding proprietary software from the outset was a good long-term investment.
