I was excitedly looking for how they manage this, but alas, it looks like not well :( Is there any tools nowadays that: (a) Lets the user keep Favorited/marked images in a local storage location (b) 'ages-out' other files to secondary storage pools (removable disks, cloud storage) (c) Keeps Low-res thumbnails of all images in the collection? I keep trying to find something that would help keep tabs on a growing collection of images, with growing file sizes from newer cameras, but it all seems like doing it manually is the only way to go :(

For my workflow, I copy from the camera SD card to an external HDD, then import to Darktable from there. It stores its thumbnails and database under my home directory, and I can ensure it has thumbnails and medium-resolution previews of all photos with `darktable-generate-cache`. On any photo, I can click "copy locally" [1], and it syncs it to my internal SSD so I can edit without the HDD plugged in.
