Sharing photos on social media

Has anyone else noticed that since the new OS Ventura was released, the photo app does not work the same way it did prior to the release of Ventura? By that I mean, if I'm on social media and want to post a photo, before Ventura, the pull down menu gave me the option of using my photo library stream or Albums. Now, there is no option to scroll through my albums. Since I have over 35K photos, scrolling through ALL of them is impossible. I did talk a few months ago with Apple support and they confirmed there was an issue. Since then there has been an update of Ventura but this problem still exists. Anyone have a fix, or an idea or anything? This is not an issue on my Iphone, just on my Mac Book Pro.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.6

Yes, that's a known bug in Photos V 8.0. You should report it to Apple via Feedback - Photos - Apple

because the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

In the meantime you can add a keyword to those photos that you want to upload to social media and search for them in the browser's Media/Photos pane. That will get those photos in the window to choose from.

I did report the issue, maybe six or more weeks ago. I have a case # but obviously this isn't viewed as being a huge issue for Apple. Thanks for your input.

It may be fixed in the next public release of Ventura along with other fixes.
