"Done" button on the "T" panel doesn't show up anymore when in crop or masking tool. I'm missing it.

But is anyone from Adobe actually listening?

The "low" speed of LR is as it is and was there since the beginning. So everybody knows it and in the last two years, LR become much faster. So no need to complain about speed. But changing the GUI is terrible. I feel like a noop that is editing photos for the first time. The other thing is that i need to "invert" every single "radial filter". LR does not allow it to stay as default setting anymore (it changed a couple of versions).

Muscle memory was gone. What a perfect time to try what the vast majority of people who have tried both say is the clearly more powerful program. I'm with them. There is not going back. 
it's okay, I was a fanboy like you guys for the longest time. I couldn't be happier with using a more powerful raw processor than I am now.

On the contrary...

I had been reluctant to switch to C1 for years because of my muscle memory and workflow. Take it away, and it was the perfect opportunity to dive into a new program. I can't tell you how happy I am that I finally did. Think of it as more of a catalyst than a reason and you'll understand my logic better.

Those that are unhappy about LrC poor performance should complain and vote in this thread.

 

In fact more people are complaining about the removal of the "Done" button than infinitely more important and dramatic problems.

@John269716800f8u I disagree with your assumption. I was always annoyed by the placement of the DONE button which was inconsistent with all the other editing functions. I don't miss it at all and find it far more efficient to just click again on the function I'm using to turn it off. And I have edited >100,000 images in LRC. For me, this was an easy transition to make.

or 3, is to some degree adaptable

 

or 4, has been using some other method than clicking the Done button to achieve the same outcome - and is continuing to do so unaffected, hence feels no need to make their voice heard on the subject.

 

I for example have strong muscle memory for pressing Esc key / Enter key (the difference between those two is largely moot in LrC). And there's a Close button right in the Crop panel (for example) which is right where IMO you'd expect to find such a thing.

 

Or: say you wanted to do some spot cloning next. You are happy with your Crop. So you click the icon for cloning. The Crop panel just closes itself uninstructed and probably unnoticed. It's old news now. The new Edit button is just an extension of this idea AFAICT. Your crop change doesn't need to be confirmed or accepted - the Done button never served that purpose, btw. Interface, not action.

 

I would expect that many users have never even noticed the existence of this Done button. I probably did; but not sufficiently to ever bother using it IIRC.
