Is there any alternatives I can use to DarkTable and RawTherapee. For some reason the exported png images are much larger than the raw NEF images. Even on Darktables compression level 9 they seem to bloated in size. For some reason the Raw NEF file for one is 24 but the export of a png 8 bit with compression level 9 ends up as a huge 39 Mb size file.
I don't think I can upload files that huge when sharing to public domain image sites. Is anyone here well veresed with image formats? How does png hold up these days?
edit: Even a webp 8-bit lossless ended up bigger than the original NEF raw image at 30.3 Mbs
