Yes, I have been missing Picasa too.

I literally miss their timeline, albums and other cool editing features too.

Doing on webapps is cumbersome and slow.

if you are looking for apple/google alternative checkout ente.io

Check out photoprism. Kind of like a self hosted alternative to Google Photos.
