Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Parent context: That's really unfortunate... I wanted to present my ppen source portfolio photography software that is targeted to photographers on which I have been working since 2018... (So NOT the vibe coding thing we see popping left...
  • Pixieset or Smugmug.
  • did opt for the pixieset suite - happy with the website and how easy it seems to add in the client galleries and deliver them.
  • In general I use pixieset for everything: my website, booking, CRM and galleries are all hosted by them.
  • This has nothing to do with Pixieset, you can deliver massive files there.

Cons

  • For a more expensive option there are sites like pixie set but those are more for professional photographers to share galleries with their clients.
  • Be careful with going for programs like pixieset that sell themselves as all in one solutions. It usually means they're pretty average across the board because they've spread themselves thin. I know they get a pretty bad wrap for their w...
  • I’m pretty happy with Pixieset to be honest. The only downside is that it’s geared towards a US audience, so for example times/dates use US formats, instead of European formats.
  • Squarespace makes a more professional looking one than the smug mugs and pixiesets.
  • Online storage $10-20 a month for delivery(Dropbox, pixie set)

Parent context: That's really unfortunate... I wanted to present my ppen source portfolio photography software that is targeted to photographers on which I have been working since 2018... (So NOT the vibe coding thing we see popping left and right). An alternative to Pixeset, Immich etc... I guess I missed the "window of opportunity." :( Reply: It's unfortunate, but we're getting 2 or 3 projects/day trying to promote themselves and there's just not room on the subreddit for that :(

Be careful with going for programs like pixieset that sell themselves as all in one solutions. It usually means they're pretty average across the board because they've spread themselves thin. I know they get a pretty bad wrap for their website builder especially. Not a lot of design flexibility or SEO stuff

I uploaded one of my own 24 MP JPEGs that I exported from Lightroom, and even on Pixieset’s free plan, a High Resolution download came back around 8 MP.

Pixiset was the least annoying when I was researching several years ago. I don't have any serious complaints.
