the famous and very popular image-management software

more: click here (but only german).
What if Apple says - at the coming OS 10.20: "Sorry, but
Logic doesn't work anymore. But you can use Garageband
instead."
"Aperture has been a loyal user for many years. But Apple pulled the ripcord some time ago and has since offered no further updates. Worse still, macOS 10.15, aka Catalina, needs a 64-bit version of image management simply does not exist - and no longer comes after. And Catalina does not support 32-bit apps anymore.
But even if you have to part with the cherished workflow that Aperture previously offered: Other image management programs can be operated with a bit of familiarization just as comfortable and fast. You can transfer your years of Aperture collection to alternatives such as photos for macOS, Lightroom Classic or any other folder-based image manager - for example, the comparably priced Luminar 3.
The structure of the image organization largely remains with the move. Unfortunately, some data such as photo books can not be transferred automatically. In addition, we give a quick overview of what is retained and where some work is required. "
This raises an interesting point, that if DAW developers are struggling with maintaining their programs on the Mac side of the fence as well as plugin developers. Apple could no holds barred nuke further development of Logic. Selling it to Microsoft and bringing Logic back home to the PC platform... as it once was
... maybe.
