“This open-source photo editor offers professional-grade features without the subscription cost, making it an excellent option for everyday photographers who want to enhance their images without breaking the bank.”
Darktable is an open source photography workflow application and raw developer. A virtual light table and darkroom for photographers. It manages your digital negatives in a database, lets you view them through a zoomable light table and enables you to develop raw images and enhance them.
As it costs nothing, you really can’t go wrong with trying it out. I also use digiKam a lot for my photo editing and organising.
