I stuck with Flickr for a number of years and stopped using this blog as a work-around for their free upload limits, but my posting has dried up, meaning that I let Flickr go.
Well, here I am again. I'm still dealing with photos. I graduated to RAW format photography with my DSLR and haven't looked back. Of course, that means I have 30,000+ RAW photos saved which takes up a lot of storage space. In these days of AI buildout and exorbitant prices for RAM and SSD storage, I'm happy to start converting most of my RAW files to conserve storage.
I've been very happy to find RawToHEIC which allows me to convert them within the Photos app on my Mac. I downloaded it free through the Mac App Store (with a lifetime licence or subscription option - depending on your preference) It has been working very well and is saving me lots of space. I especially like that metadata, like location, is retained.
