I switched my laptop to Arch a bit over a year ago but my desktop is still on Windows 11.
The main thing that's holding me back is the lack of raw photo editing software that matches my workflow. I've tried RawTherapee, Darktable, RapidRAW and a couple of others. So far, everything was either cumbersome to use, was missing important features or had suboptimal performance. With dozens if not hundreds of candidates, even one more minute of editing time per photo can quickly add up. Many of my gigs are event photography and my clients often want at least the roughly edited previews within 24-48 hours.
If any of you knows a tool that accurately replicates the UX, feature set and performance of (ideally) Adobe Camera Raw or (not so ideally) Lightroom, you'd make me the happiest photography nerd on the planet. Bonus points if it correctly imports existing development settings in case I need to re-edit or re-export older photos.
PSA: if you recommend I use GIMP, like so many before you did, I will block you. GIMP is not a raw editor and it can't even open most raw formats without help from one of the tools I mentioned above.
