I use scripts to compress my video files, locate a single image in a folder, read metadata using exiftool, fix dates using exiftool, etc. etc. All that I call via a right click - open with from digikam.

I'm using Manjaro/xfce and I'm looking at doing some hardware updates<br>
and reinstalling Manjaro. I could install KDE instead of XFCE.<br>
<br>
What's the difference between the digikam KDE version and the<br>
appimage?<br>
<br>
* more functionality?<br>
* more speed?<br>
