Hot take: more things that are single-user, family, or small-team scale should just be files. You should be able to copy a directory or sync it with a NAS or cloud service or whatever and carry all the stuff you need to use some application that way.
Photo albums used to be that way, but now it's all in stuff that's deep in some DB schema that's impossible to move around without being a DBA.
Copying files is easy, though.
