What are Lightroom CC editing/editing limitations?

If I switch to LR CC on the cloud how much can I edit, or retouch my photo?

What is the limit?

The advantage of using cloud to me would be to have much more processing power available and so be able to do on the cloud more than I can do locally with my hardware BUT is that even the case?

Did Adobe ever clarify this?

    Sadly it's not true that I can edit a photo as much as I want in LR CC Classic so I wanted to know if LR CC could be a solution and allow me to truly edit "as much as I want" or if it has limits as well.

    I guess I will have e to try LR CC myself but as of now I have synchronization problem that Adobe never fixed in the last 6 months so many of my phots do not sync properly or are removed altogether form my collections therefore LR CC  for now I can't verify it myself... that's why I asked.

    Your question is a little ambiguous. The Lightroom CC features are not as fully developed as the Lightroom Classic CC features are at this time. It will take some time for that to happen. However, as far as those features have been provided, you can edit your photos as much as you want to. You just don't have as much flexibility as you do in Lightroom Classic CC.

    If Lightroom Classic CC won't do the job for you now, then Lightroom CC is definitely not going to be something to turn to because the toolset isn't nearly as robust yet.

    The processing is done on your computer and or mobile device, storage of your files and the data is done in the cloud. The cost of the storage is $10 per month for every TB of storage used.
