Czkawka or Krokiet, what should you use?
Just use Krokiet - it is easier to run, it is fully supported, and includes multiple tools and features that are not available in Czkawka.
Czkawka GTK has many issues that are difficult or impossible to fix, especially on macOS and Windows. In Krokiet, most of these problems are resolved, largely due to the use of a different UI framework. At this point, Czkawka GTK only receives bug fixes.
