An alternative may fit better if you need broader format coverage, built-in editing, batch conversion, file organisation, or a specialised photo workflow. Pineapple Pictures is in maintenance mode, and its format support depends on Qt image plugins that may require separate installation or building. An itch.io purchase provides experimental additional formats, but no expanded editing or management tier is described. Consider your platform, formats, metadata and search needs, editing or automation tasks, and whether you need a viewer, organiser, converter, terminal, or photographer-focused tool.
