Fotki Desktop

Fotki is primarily a digital photo-sharing website and web service that also incorporates elements of a social network. While not well-known, a decade ago the platform featured over 1 million users and 1 billion images, according to Wikipedia. If you are still using this tool, then you will be happy to learn that it comes with a Fotki Desktop edition that simplifies how you manage your photos.

As with any other social media and sharing service out there, you will need to have an account in order to take advantage of it. Once you log in, it’s all smooth sailing, and you can start uploading your images. The interface is rather rugged and, in all fairness, far from today’s standards of style and design. Nevertheless, it consumes very little of your computer’s resource, and you should be able to run it without issues on older PCs as well.

When uploading images, you have two main options, namely to a private or public cloud, the latter being the social network component of the service. The downside of the service, and tool, is that it solely works with images, which is a deal-breaker, especially considering the popularity of videos and shorts nowadays.
