Atanas<p>As a recent convert to the Church of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/geopackage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>geopackage</span></a>, I wonder what would be the downside- if any- to moving all my data to geopackage. As opposed to postgis or file geodatabase. I use QGIS and ArcGIS Pro in parallel, often concurrently. Postgis is overkill for my needs, fgdb is tricky to use with QGIS. </p><p>Serious question.</p>
