Here you can ask, propose, comment about some software alternative you're looking for.

It's important to be broad-minded when speaking about software alternatives when switching to Linux:

Role of conduct: The same as in Lemmy and Mastodon: in summary, be respectful, no offensive language, no harassment, no spam.

IrfanView is a great piece of software for Windows. One of those "jack of all trades, master of none". It works as a simple image & video viewer and browser, can do simple and not-so-simple image manipulation, and even batch jobs, like conversion, on selections of images in folders.

For Linux (and other platforms) there's XnView MP that offers extremely similar functionalities.
