I just wanted to join the choir. I think its pretty clear that photo management has not been solved yet, which is quite surprising given the cultural importance of memories via photos/videos. I actually think the same discussion arised 265 days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4388242 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4388242 My story: I used to keep everything in iPhoto since it is quite intuitive and allowed me to manage my photos (60 Gig, videos take a ton of space). However, since there are more and more devices, I have been looking for a more future-proof solution. It didn't help that the export opportunities (metadata-wise) diminish with every version of iPhoto. So right now, I have returned to folder-hirachy where the metadata is saved in the open iptc standard. Lightroom makes it really easy to keep your assets as future-proof as possible. Which is one of my biggest pet-peeves with most of the mentioned providers/solutions. They just don't have sufficient export options, and we ought to realize that any of them could die any day. Or video support is lacking which I cannot understand in the 21st century. What I'm now looking for is a solution that allows me to backup my folder structure (I'm heavily leaning towards AWS Glacier), as well as allowing me to access them from a variety of devices. Like even a simple web-inferface would suffice. If someone could help me with my single biggest technical problem, I'd be forever in your debt.
