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.

    Just out of curiosity, what’s the use case for having all your photos actually on the phone as opposed to remote access from your phone?

      Backup, redundancy, easy access… If my server goes down I don’t have the time to fix it at the moment.

      Also the photos app on my phone is quite good, so I find it very easy to find old pictures quickly.

      I also prefer offline-capable solutions

      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
