Moving from Aperture to Photos
I figure I have to do this eventually as Aperture hasn't been supported for so long, so I wonder if anyone has any tips about how to make Photos have similar functionality. I have Luminar, so that gives me lots of editing features from the plug in. Can anyone tell me what critical things they just can't do in Photos that they had in Aperture?
Is there any way to make the background dark when looking at photos, without going into full dark mode on my system? The light background is unappealing and one reason I have hesitated to move, although it does go dark when you edit, which is good.
I notice also that when you crop, the image zooms in so you can no longer see the area outside the crop. I don't like that because if you want to adjust the crop, you lose the ability to see the rest of the picture unless you reset it. I guess that's what you have to do, but simpler that you just see the whole image with the crop lines.
As for importing, I tried exporting a project from Aperture as a library and imported that into Photos. It worked well, but for my whole library of thousands of pics, I imagine it will take much, much longer to import. Any tips on how to do that safely?
Any thoughts or tips would be appreciated. Thanks.
