looking for recommendations on a system for lightweight editing and storage

lightroom is overkill for me, capture one with a nas also kind of overkill. i want a fast and robust setup for: capturing, editing, storing, publishing my work 

🙏

How much are you willing to pay for storage / how much storage do you need / how much are you shooting regularly?

how much time do you want to spend (max) editing/organizing

what is your connection speed?

Do you have an existing cloud backup of photos?

Lightroom Cloud seems like the best bet if you already use Adobe. Set up your organizational principles ahead of time to save time.

Storage: I would use an external SSD and back that up using AWS, Wasabi or something similar. This is a good combo of local access and speed + redundancy just in case your drive fails

shoot 1-2x/month. prefer one-time costs to monthly SaaS (though am flexible). unsure how much storage i need 

don’t want to spend more than 1-2hrs/month on editing/organizing 

connection is a starlink, it fluctuates but is pretty fast most of the time 

no cloud backup currently
