Wow, PhotoQt runs! That’s awesome. Tried running Debian on my M1 Mac yesterday and exporting all of my photos for the month of June so far and importing them into PhotoQt, well, locating that folder and viewing images. It looked fine but for some reason, Mac Photos didn’t export the separate parts, just the single file (as it views it) since it can handle live photos natively. Then, when moving into Linux, only the static photo files moved cutting out the moving part… I will keep experimenting. I know this is such a niche topic, but I bet as Librem 5 grows and someday gets more popular amongst more Apple users this could be a common sticking point / issue to be solved when making the move. So, it sounds like such a non-issue, just ditch the moving parts of the photos, right? For most of them I’d agree but I have very little photos / videos with my dad and he’s no longer with us. Of a few of the ones I do have, some are these ‘live photos’ that do add a little element of coming to life, so hence my quest to try and preserve them. PhotoQt is the only software, period, outside of Apple’s own, that supports them - that’s an amazing spectacle of the FOSS community in my mind.
Lollypop looks incredibly polished on the Librem in your screenshots! So you keep all your music files in the Music folder, presumably artist…album…songs and it preserves that structure?
