Sorry, I didn’t know digital was frowned upon. I used to shoot Fuji Velvia & theit film with the slightly faster ISO (name escapes me now). I have lots of transparency slides but no scanner or a way to digitize them to post.
I would say that my scanned negatives are the real aliens here, rather than your pix taken with a digicam.
That’s just been my kind of self irony having posted so many digitalized negatives before.
So I am the one who should be grateful that no one takes offense at it.
If so, just give me a note and I‘ll stop that.

I don't know that it is; I don't see people regularly complaining about it. These days I think digital photography has become "the norm" and makes it a lot easier to upload photos to The 'Net.
And one would need to digitalize analog pix anyway to show them in the web so any pic here is digital the one or the other way.
On the other side some of the „better“ Fuji cameras have the feature to simulate their chemical films like Velvia, Astia, Provia…

There's plenty of room here for both traditional chemical photography and digital imaging. Both have their strengths and yield unique results.
And yes, even many of us old school film-shooters are now mainly using a hybrid process, since we're mostly showing our images online and on phones vs. paper prints. Personally, I haven't made a wet print in 15 years, but I still shoot b/w film... then scan the negatives and tweak the images on the digital side.
Ya know, if I did set up my parents' workhorse Omega D-3 enlarger and made a traditional print I was happy with... I'd just slap it down on the scanner as soon as it dried. So I feel like I'm cutting out the middleman.
That said, there's no question that darkroom printing is an impressive art in itself, and I sometimes miss doing it. My dad the lifelong pro photographer used to say, "Many a great picture is made in the darkroom, not in the camera."
I'll be developing a couple of rolls of film soon, so expect some b/w images from me here one of these days...
