I would recommend downloading the free 30 day trial of "On1 Photo RAW 2020" and try it. I have been using ON1 Photo RAW now for 4 years and find it more than an adequate replacement for Lightroom and also for a good deal of what Photoshop can do. It costs nothing to give it a try and it may very well be all that you would need too.

Change your plan to the $10 / month version. You seem to have picked the wrong one from their menu of options.
Yep, the trick I use is a synced collection for my “working” library, which sometimes gets close to 20GB, and an unsynced “archive” collection of everything else.

Try Cyberlink PhotoDirector. Lightroom clone, so minimal learning curve
Usually on sale, both subscription and stand alone. Don't buy at full price, but even that is cheaper than Adobe.
Has Layers which lightroom doesn't.
They keep adding a ton of presets (styles) which can be fun if you're in to that sort of thing.

I think you’re the first person I’ve seen mention PhotoDirector. I’ve been using it for a couple of years and it seems to fairly feature full but I’ve only been doing this for a few years. Give the price and that I was just starting out, it seemed like a good starter choice. Over the years they keep improving the product and adding functionality like layers that now I’m hard pressed to find a reason to move away other than popularity and thus resources available for Lightroom.
