Need Better Sharing Features in Lr, it’s just not good enough

Hi,

Firstly,  I love the Lightroom cloud ecosystem, I have several TB of cloud images, but I share hundreds of images with high school kids and I'm tired of our sub-par product. 

When I share a Lr gallery via a link, the user experience of downloading those images for any reason, especially for social is just absolutely awful. The kids screenshot images in the gallery and repost those. 

We need an improvement Adobe, I'm happy to discuss and help. 
Paul

    "the user experience of downloading those images"

    For Clients or Family I provide these instructions for downloading- And yes it could be made simpler.

     

    DOWNLOADING PHOTOS          ( If  Permitted.)

     

    *          In Photo Grid view   ( To download ALL photos.)

                Click on the three dots icon [···].

                Click on  [Download Photos]

                This will open a dialog box allowing you to SAVE a ‘ZIP’ file containing all the photos.

                Use your operating system to ‘Extract’ the photos from a ZIP file.

     

    *          In Single Image View   ( To download ONE photo )

                Click on the three dots icon [···].

                Click on  [Download]

                A dialog box allows you to SAVE this one photo.

     

    Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .
