What a disaster Lightroom has been. They launched new Lightroom and renamed old Lightroom to Lightroom Classic. New Lightroom was missing a lot of features but was generally faster and more stable so I switched over. Then somehow Adobe decided they would refocus back on Lightroom Classic so I up and made the re-switch. It was a waste of time and money for everyone involved.

And barely scratches the surface of the catastrophe. What with mobile integration and my own shifting needs, what I didn’t need was the workflow confusion that Adobe introduced.

Lightroom was the ultimate one-stop shop but I’ve now come to split my workflow up so much that the editing is now hot-swappable. C1 is looking vulnerable to RawTherapee, I gotta say. Lightroom is sadly a dot in the rear-view mirror.
