That said, this almost convinces me to go with Photos, which I have been using 
exclusively in processing my iPhone photos. And I will continue to do so going 
forward, at least for my iPhone photos, and possibly even with photos created 
with a camera. (I still have two, both Fuji, And I’m tempted by the X-E4, for 
which I have one excellent lens.) 

But I still have tons of photos—well, not tons compared to you guys 🤪—that have 
been processed and organized with Lightroom. I would want local storage, which 
means the Classic bundle, though it’s very unlikely that I’d use anything but 
Lightroom. But I believe it is $20  month.

Again, thanks to everyone who responded.
