A popular path is to ditch Lightroom for the trio of Rapid Photo Downloader, digikam and finally RawTherapee.
This was entirely unusable for me. RawTherepee is only for RAW treatment/export. Digikam can only do photo organization. Now here's the kicker: the two won't talk. Metadata known and written by one is invisible to the other. Using Manjaro, Rapid Photo Downloader eventually started segfaulting on me.
I also tried Darktable which looked much better and much more like a Lightroom replacement, but didn't like it.
So back to Lightroom, and even Windows as a whole, it is for me.
- dflynch 6y agoSorry that you saw segfaults when running Rapid Photo Downloader under Manjaro. I am the developer of Rapid Photo Downloader. One thing to keep in mind is that Manjaro, similar to Fedora, is bleeding edge. Things break sometimes when running Manjaro or Fedora. That's the nature of a cutting edge distro. The good news is that things that break are often quickly fixed.
