Zilla

Although they removed the free plan and 1TB of free storage space, Flickr is still being used by amateur and professional photographers alike. From having a decent sharpening and image compression algorithm without having a negative impact of responsiveness to being able to upload large files of up to 200 MB, there are several reasons why the platform did not die out.

Zilla is a tool that addresses Flickr users who want to be able to manage their albums more efficiently and make sure that they do not lose their work, portfolios or memories, for amateur photographers.

The program comes with a single window interface that contains the main functions displayed in a tab, namely Upload and Download. While overall simplistic, the magic of the tool is behind the interface and one of the things you are likely to appreciate is that the upload function replicated the folder structure from your PC and build albums with the same name as the connected folders. Needless to say that this can save you a lot of time in the long run.

Another noteworthy feature is that the program keeps track of the uploaded media and provides alerts regarding duplicates. This feature is designed to be continuous and so you can avoid uploading the same files that you may have misplaced in different folders. In case you reboot your PC for whatever reason, the tool resumes from where it left from, so you do not have to start all over again and check what was uploaded already.

It is worth mentioning that the resolution of your media along with its metadata is maintained so that you can find the files you want any time easier. In the eventuality that you are using Flickr to store your portfolio or photo collections and would like to be able to manage the media content uploaded and stored better, then perhaps you can consider giving Zilla a try.
