I recently got back into photography and I've been seriously impressed by darktable. Its tooling is fantastic, and I was worried that I'd struggle now that I'm 100% Linux. The only downside is the workflow and interface. In my opinion every piece of software on the market now has adopted the wrong workflow in separating photo management from the edit screen, e.g. the light table/dark room split in darktable. The film photography workflow doesn't make sense to me in a digital world. Apple got it spot-on with Aperture, and I will forever resent them for abandoning it. Its interface and flow were basically perfect for me. Everything being on one screen made it so quick to adjust lots of photos. Everything since has gone the route of Lightroom and I find it really annoying. But, darktable is free and the tools are good. I can deal with it having the wrong workflow. It has helped me get back into photography again.
