Photos is just an update of iPhoto, at least for now, so the lack of any meaningful new features and the limited functionality are no surprise to me. It's workflow is even more painful than iPhoto, in some respects. The loss of basic things like star ratings and a meaning full way to use keywords is just baffling. It sure makes creating smart albums and such far more difficult than it needs to be.

It does not help that the editing algorithms of Photos are no better than Aperture or iPhoto, both of which were trailing behind most of the competition in the first place. For a free app Photos is fine, but since it's lagging behind even some open source software I had to drop it from consideration almost right away.
