I was an big Aperture user too, and put off the move a long time. I installed and edited the same photos in everything. You either take the feature-set hit and switch to Apple Photos ( which does a great job with basic tweaks ), or you switch to Lightroom. Everything else is way below par. Your photos just won't anywhere near as good.

Which presents an opportunity for someone like Pixelmator or Affinity to make a photo management app + their photo editing tools.

  Personally, I don't want a "photo management" app, I want an app that is very good at batch processing, works over NFS drives, and doesn't use "projects" and "libraries". Basically I want a GUI version of ImageMagick.

    Usually after one uses non-destructive editing (a la Aperture and Lightroom) everything else is like medieval times.

      Not me. Plus non-destructive editing does not preclude a non-IDE, non-library based workflow.

  Sadly, I don't think the market is that big. I think Lightroom is going to monopolize it unless they get really lazy.
