@forteller Does it have to be a Linux app? I could probably put together a quick web app that does this. Sadly only chromium browsers support browsing the local file system (afaik), so that would be a requirement.

@geirmarius As long as everything happens locally, I could live with that. Very kind of you to offer! :D

@forteller It's an excuse to have fun with some new web APIs 🤓

Here's a rough implementation:
It's not doing anything on a server. Everything happens locally.

Source: https://github.com/geirmarius/photo-map-viewer

Do tell me if there's some fatal issues, or any features you would want 😊

@geirmarius Amazing! That was fast!

Though it seems like the site is quite slow after the first couple dozen or hundreds of photos. The first ones popped up immediately, but then it seems to be very slow after that.

Tried adding a folder with 5k+ photos, though… 😅 But unfortunately that's what I need to look trough…

@forteller Ya... performance is not great haha. Let me see if I can fix that 😆

@forteller I can't speak to how well it works. I haven't used it. I just ran across it at some point and dug it out of the trash bin of my memory. :KEKW: https://activityworkshop.net/software/gpsprune/
