Some wires to be sure.

There's certainly no shortage of wires in the view from my bedroom window:

Neither the satellite cabling or the rooftop aerial (both tight against the wall) have ever made much difference to shots of my house. Now our TV is all via the internet & it's using one of those wires.

Any suggestions besides Photoshop?

It is a pain to remove them.
In the last couple of months I have rethought this problem and have concluded that why not accept them as a part of reality.
In other words compose the photo with the poles and wires and celebrate them as a part of the reality that is there.
Yes, I avoid them if possible but have now reconsidered.

I use Lightroom for 95% of my processing. I can’t imagine using it to remove wires.

I have luminar Neo and it does a great job. Also it's not hard at all to clone out wires. Especially if you blow the photo up to 100percent. Then you can move fast. This puts new light on how poorly I thought I was at editing. Lol

The Spot Removal Tool does the job quickly in many cases but sometimes PS can do it better depending on circumstances.

This has been my approach also. The only time I remove a wire from an image is when it runs along the edge or in the corner of the image and is therefore too distracting. Oftentimes wires can even be used to serve as leading lines within a composition, but this should be considered at time of shooting for maximum effectiveness.
