How do you organize & store your photos? - Blåhaj Lemmy

I’m trying to reign in my iOS camera roll and I figured it would be easier on desktop. Turns out the Photos app suuuuuuucks. All I want is to categorize photos by tag or folder and then remove them from the main view. Albums are nice in theory but they’re an extra click/tap away from the home screen and don’t hide photos from the camera roll. Is there a better way to do this?

I purchased a basic Synology NAS. Works great, automatically backs up photos on ios, has tags, folders, map view and facial recognition.
I do too, but is there a way to upload images as heic directly? The Live Photo is always uploaded as a jpeg + mov
