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

[paul@owenstaylor.com]

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.

"the user experience of downloading those images"

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

            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.
