Additional info, I’m on PC. I want to spend as little as possible.
Digikam is free and has facial recognition. Works on Windows, Mac and Linux
I wish Picasa was still supported by Google.
Lightroom has face recognition.
Is it wise to whack my whole library into Lightroom? Maybe I’m not using Lightroom properly? Also surely there is a cheaper option?
!updateme
How?
Create a new library, then import the images, then use the facial recognition functionality in the library module
Photo prism is another option for facial recognition. It’s free and runs on Windows under Docker.
I use photoprism and it’s painfully slow with the amount of photos I have (around 100k), but it’s still good if I need web access.
I tried DigiKam, but didn’t like it much, and it had issues accessing network devices (don’t remember if only macos or windows too).
Started trying out Mylio, played with face acceptance sliders a bit, it’s great on my machine, and I already have external sync methods so free option is enough for me. I sync photos with external apps to my network shares and Mylio automatically picks them up and proposed face tags (can even auto accept if you set it up for that).
Google Photo does it. I guess you can upload them and then download everything tagged to organize them.
Some server still has a Picasa 3.9 setup available for download.
Following. Similar scenario and hoping for something to make the process less daunting. Terabytes of Rawls just looking to get sorted.
