Dealing with PHOTOS for MacOS is not the most enlightening part of my day and I have a strong interest in replacing it with something which gives me better cataloging. (Lifewire: Photo Management Apps to Replace Aperture and iPhoto)
One of Yevette's annoyances with Photos is its linkage with iCloud since she wants nothing going out to any external clouds and neither do I. While iCloud can be disabled, it's still an annoyance which mostly appeals to those who play with handheld devices, etc.
The Editor's Pick is Emulsion which is regarded as having an attractive price at $49.99. The Rockhouse can't handle that just now but we study the matter because the frustration with Photos here is unanimous. (App Store preview: Emulsion for Mac)
This is not a recommendation at this time but rather suggested reading if you have the same problem / interest.
Ed: what problem is that?
Being fed-up with Tim Cook's myopia regarding desktop computers.
Emulsion looks like the strongest possibility for trying out a demo but there are few reviews of the software so the study can wait a little while to see what comes yet.
Meanwhile, Lotho is betting I would not call the bank to try to resolve a recent problem and I thought yesterday he had won since I forgot about it but then I got a pass since MLK Day should have been a bank holiday.
Ed: what do you win from the bet?
Nothin' (larfs)
