LrC 14.2 on MacStudio, OS 15.3.2 began crashing shortly after opening today. I have had this issue before, about a month ago, and was able to resolve by ininstalling then reinstalling LrC. It worked fine up intill this morning. I first attempted a computer Restart, to reconfirm the issue, the uninstalled LrC from Creative Cloud, then another computer restart to reinstall LrC to Creative Cloud.. Note Creative Cloud is in my Computer startup routine and sometimes gets hungup on loading in and needs to be restarted. Any help would be appreciated. I have 25+ years of memories in my catalog.

It could be a corrupt catalog. Unzip your most recent backup catalog and try that, or a new or different catalog.

Other than resetting the LrC preference file, I don't have any ideas as to what's causing the crash after startup.

The Creative Cloud App does not need to be in your computer startup routine. Any services that Adobe apps 'require' are actually loaded automatically and independently of the CC App. FWIW, I haven't allowed the CC App to launch at login for years. The only time I even launch it is to update an application.
