My 10+ year old photo management system [1] relies on the file system and EXIF as the source of truth for my entire photo library.
It’s proven several times over that it’s the correct approach and abstractions (formerly Google photos, currently Immich) should just be built on top - but these proprietary databases are only for convenience.
For work, I’m having the same experience as the author and everything is just markdown and csv files for Claude Code (for research and document writing).
