I've been meaning to sort out my photo mess for ages. Years of phone dumps and old camera folders, all sitting in random directories, and every tool I tried wanted me to upload everything to some cloud I didn't trust. A friend mentioned Lap last week, so I gave it a shot. It's a local-first, open-source photo manager that just points at your own folders and indexes them right there on your machine. Nothing gets uploaded, which is the part I care about most. I ran it against my main drive and it handled tens of thousands of files without choking. Browsing by date, searching by location or camera, even catching near-duplicates, all offline. If you've got a sprawling library you've been avoiding, it's worth a look. I set it up as my local photo library app and haven't looked back: https://lapphotos.com/ Simple, private, and it just works.
