Picasaweb was pretty damn good until google killed it. It was easy to

slideshows, EXIF info etc. Google photos is just UGLY and difficult to
work with. I want to see more photos on a single screen, but I can't
have that.

Are there any free sites that you guys like that will suck in the albums
(maybe 100 or so) from google photos ? The "suck in albums" thing is
pretty much essential since I just store all my photos (thousands) in a
single subdirectory on my HD in chronological order
(filename=filedate+time).

flickr.com is great for photosharing. You get 1 TB of free space and
you can share images at very high resolution.

I have some albums there already, so I tried to add to the current one.
I couldn't figure out how to upload a number of photos at once, just
one at a time. The drag+drop method doesn't work well with slackware so
I have to select filenames using -- normally -- control/click. Didn't
work here. I'm sure it used to or I wouldn't have EVER used it. Feh :-(

Dunno.. maybe you can try a different browser under linux slackware and
it might work. The upload thingy seems to require flash.

Download the Uploadr: https://www.flickr.com/tools/

It will run in the background and monitor the folders you've selected and sync
them all to Flickr automatically. Voila, all your albums and all your photos on
Flickr. With full Exif

I've got the latest linux flash plugin -- 23.0 r0

Probably just one more thing I have to use chrome for instead of firefox.

Use the kipi plugin in any of the apps that utilise them. eg Digikam

Nope! The Flickr Uploader works just fine for free accounts with 1000GB
storage. At least that is what works for me with my free account via my
iPhone. The uploaded image files are there with Flickr's idea of full EXIF.

It may work fine if you already had downloaded it previously, but
there is no download link for the uploadr tool for windows.

Curiously, they do offer a download link for the mac version:
