    Photo library doubled in size after Time Machine restore

    I've been going through multiple issues with iCloud Photo Library (some advice: don't ever use it) and as part of the solution I had to restore my photo library on my iMac from a Time Machine backup.

    iCloud Photos stuck on "downloading"

    I have iCloud Photos on. Sometimes when I go into edit mode on a live photo, or depth photo, a bubble comes up and says "downloading" it will stay at 0% forever. Sometimes I can get it to work if I reboot the phone, but most of the time its just stuck and I can't edit the picture. Anyone else...

    Photos: what is that "persistent sidebar"?

    All the reviews of Photos mention that there is a "persistent sidebar for easier navigation", but without mentioning what exactly is the difference compared to today. Photos for macOS already _has_ a navigation sidebar which is there pretty much all the time, no? I was hoping that they might...

    Changing key photo in live photos

    In iOS 11 you can change the key photo for live photos. Are all the photos you can pick between taken in full resolution? I thought only the main frame was taken as a full res photo and that the rest was a low res video file.
