Re: what is best version

Hi,

This depends on the usages. We maintain a list of bugs / features
between versions. Look at the NEWS files here :

https://www.digikam.org/documentation/changelog/

The Flatpak is sandboxed and problematic especially with external data
than the home dir. It's the same with Snap. Using the AppImage is
always better and does not have any restriction.

Best regards

Gilles Caulier
