I am a reluctant user of Adobe in general and Lightroom in particular since Apple abandoned Aperture. I remain frustrated with the split between Lightroom Classic and Lightroom CC. I want a modern, streamlined user interface and native cloud features, but I also want the latest advanced features and the ability to manage my own files in local storage in tandem with automated cloud storage management.
