It’s total madness, isn’t it. Long time user, from 1-5, then everything fell apart with CC, subscriptions and the clusterfuck of shite installed on my Mac.
I tried the subscription for Lightroom CC and left my computer on at night to sync my meager 50-100GB to their cloud clusterfuck. Trial period ended after 2 weeks and the sync hadn’t finished – and no it wasn’t an issue with my bandwidth.
This part is so true. Adobe under-the-hood SWE feels so shoddy. It feels as if their products, although delivering the good, is strung up by different patchworks. And it spawns files & folders all over your system
Same, I miss the ownership of my photos and photographic workflows from the older lightroom days. It's sad that the industry rolled over to accept this and it trickled to the consumers.
