My Mistakes: 1. Digital Asset Management

This isn’t how it was meant to be. No-one excited about the web in the late ’90s pictured an attention industry commodifying our consciousness to power a surveillance economy spying on us from birth, trading our data to segment & silo us, target adverts, propaganda and flagging pre-crime potential.

digiKam 8.6.0 is released - https://www.digikam.org/news/2025-03-15-8.6.0_release_announcement/

Hier verwende ich die Bilddatenbank "digiKam" seit einiger Zeit testweise als Alternative für ein kommerzielles System und bin sehr zufrieden. Mit den wenigen Einschränkungen kann ich ganz gut leben und bin auf dem Sprung, den Wechsel zu "digiKam" ganz zu vollziehen.

Sehr spannendes Thema!

Schade, daß die heruntergeladenen JPG-Dateien keine eingebetteten Metadaten enthalten, das macht eine legale angemessene Weiterverwendung sehr schwer.
