I am melting over here. 🫠 Photo taken during my bike commute. I want to finally give Darktable a good try. Cliff shared a link to darktable.info, which looks like it is a good resource to get started. I am aware that I won't replicate my current workflow in two weeks. It will take more time. But, if I never start, I'll be stuck with Adobe forever. I also want to put Aphera through its paces. I am not sure how I feel about the way it works from my brief, initial tests – basically layering a bunch of "filters" (I am not doing it justice, I am sure) – but I am willing to also give it a proper test run. So, hopefully starting in the next few days, I'll start with one of them and post only photos processed with it for a whole week. (Maybe I'll document how I get along with each app, but don't hold your breath.)
