Currently I am scanning many hundreds, soon to be thousands of images and films.

Also with GIMP once the auto level is applied you have the opt

For me the ability to do localised adjustments with the drawn masks using the paths tool and the ability to then feather this mask to get invisible transitions is what wins me over to Darktable. I am really impressed with Rawttherapee but the lack of localised adjustments is a huge negative for me.

The pixel pipe order is critical and should not be hidden. But for most users and most images the default order is fine. I can give an example of why I change the pixel pipe order.

It is really easy to manage which modules are shown and you can create presets that only show the modules you most use.
