Hi!!
Just wanted to share my found and experiences trying to find a replacement for Aperture. I'm just a hobby photographer.
I really have tried Apple Photos but it gets complicated when wanting to store pictures on external disks, and rating (using tags), and have not managed to get "finding missing pictures" to work properly. I might get it a third og fourth chance.. 🙂
I don't want to go subscription on LR or Capture One, and the price for a perpetual on Capture one is a bit steep (€349, but it might be the solution)
At the moment I'm using ACD See, working quite well but is more a viewer. So if you store pictures manually in folders its really good.
It does display .afphoto files (but that might be something with Serif's implementation of thumbnails in MacOS). I'm on version 8 (OSX Sonoma) and have not upgraded to 10.
Best, Pelle
