Nitpick: if I want to compare the number of Github stars (as a metric for popularity), than abbreviating values makes this harder when scanning that table row:

    716     35k      6.6k
For me this would be much easier:

    716     35,033   6,607

Out of the loop, is it considered not open source?

I unironically have been making a text file of photo management tools I wanted to go through and try before picking one to settle on. Thank you for this comparison chart!

Edit, the text file contents so far:

• Damselfly • Immich • Lychee • Media Goblin • Photo-Stream • Photoprism • Photoshow • Photostructure • Photoview • PiGallery2 • Piwigo • Pixapop • Photobox

Thanks, this something I'm also after. Want to self host a system like that, have the hardware but I'm yet to go through all options.

I would reccomend a row that quantifies how stable the application is. For example Immich looks very promising, but its homepage has the following banner

> The project is under very active development. Expect bugs and changes. Do not use it as the only way to store your photos and videos!

That immediately disqualifies it for me. Having this in the table would be very useful.

Is there a reason that Darktable wouldn’t fit this category?
