I use a MacBook Pro, at home and when traveling. I use Lightroom Classic. I seldom need or intentionally use Adobe’s cloud synch features. On my upcoming trip I will try using LR Mobile on my iPad (and leave my laptop home) and so there are some aspects of that app that will not work if it is not actively on the net. But mostly I will have internet access turned off.
The LR Mobile approach to synching, and most of Adobe’s cloud-based design is apparently based on an audience with a totally different perspective, those who are constantly connected to high-sped internet and who want every image sucked off their devices and stored in Adobe’s Cloud to be shared with the world. I like the functionality of LR Classic and am grateful that they retained this alternative to the Cloud-based apps. Back when I had both a desktop Mac and my laptop, I did have LR Classic on both machines and never had an issue unless I tried to have both running at the same time.
