can anyone recommend a good app for consolidating all your pictures from different sources? (macOS)
If you’re under 2TB, iCloud Photos supports all formats including RAW. If you’re over 2TB, Flickr Pro.
// It’s not there yet, but third party tools that integrate with Photos and use non-destructive “edits” are now approaching the usability of Aperture, barring the ability to have 5 levels of selectivity (e.g. marking photos in multiple passes from 1 - 5 stars, for rapidly paring down a large shoot).
I’m not familiar with Darkroom, but also wanted to avoid the Adobe rented software scene. I’ve been using Luminar, which is excellent for photo organisation, Raw develop with wide camera support, and advanced editing. It’s a traditional pricing model rather than a subscription.

Do you have any recommendations? I'm very familar with Lightroom, but am trying to reduce my use of "rented" software.

You should have a look at RAW Power.
Despite being a formerly avid paying user of Flickr since 2005, I can’t disagree with this more.
