Looking for linux workflow ideas (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Linux photogs, help me out. What does your workflow look like? What apps do you use?

I've found that digikam is really good for managing my keywords and metadata, and organising photos post shoot, but the image editing is limited.

And using separate image editing software leads to problems, because my camera's raw files (.cr3) aren't very well supported.

I can make it work, by using Lightroom online, but it's not exactly an integrated system due to its cloud based design.

I've tried running Lightroom in a VM, but ran in to trouble giving the VM access to my GPU...

So those who have made it work, what does it look like for you?

Currently I'm using:

Shotwell for library management. Digikam has more functionality but Shotwell integrates better with my GNOME desktop environment and I find it more pleasing to look at and use.
Rawtherapee for RAW processing.
GIMP.
For panoramas I use Hugin if I'm feeling patient and want to preserve 16 bit. Otherwise I use Xpano, which I've found quicker, simpler and more reliable, but only supports 8 bit export currently.
For publishing I use Pixelfed and a wordpress website.

https://pixls.us/ is a good resource.
