Joseph, here is a little explanation of the features you listed, from a humble user 😊. Some are a bit obscure imho, so I put them at the bottom. 😉 Feel free to ask any further questions. 😊
Photo location
"Photo #metadata is normally removed. This saves the geo tag (if present), and links it to a map prior to removing other metadata." (In General)
Post categories
"Add categories to your posts" (In Post/Comment tools)

Post categories"Add categories to your posts" (In
Post/Comment tools)
AFAIK (I'm still learning) : #
categories are like #
folders , except :
- you can only put your own posts into #
categories. (You can put both your own posts, and your followed people/forums' posts into folders.)
- #
categories are public and shown on your profile page. (Folders are private and show on your network page.)
Tag cloud"Provide a personal tag cloud on your profile page" (In
Advanced profiles)
Shows a nice tag cloud, based on the tags of your original or shared posts. (
Example)
List forums"Show visitors of public community forums at the advanced profile page" (In
Advanced profiles)
Only applies to forums. Not sure what it does, and not sure where that advanced profile page is... 🤷♀️
Auto-mention forums"Add/Remove mention when a forum page is selected or deselected in the ACL window." (In
Post composition)
I guess ACL = access control list = "show to" field in "permissions" tab.
Imho it should be part of core features, as this behavior is the only one making sense, and the setting doesn't have much value.
