In the near future I will have to decide if I want to learn ArcGIS Pro (aka 'AGP') or switch to QGIS.
I have to start looking at AGP seriously so that I can make an informed decision.
I have barely scratched the surface with it because every time I try, I quickly hit a wall and switch back to ArcMap to get work done. I will basically have to stop using ArcMap to move forward.
I hate ribbon interfaces. For this reason I use LibreOffice in preference to Microsoft Office whenever I can.

Q. My poor little Dell laptop now has to run something called ArcGISIndexingServer and the fan is cranking full speed and steam is coming out of the vents. And I am not even running ArcGIS Pro! How do I make it go away.
A. I had to remove indexing in the AGP project, delete the index, exit AGP, and then wait a few minutes. FAQ: Why does the ArcGISIndexingServer.exe use a high amount of computer memory? does not actually answer the question, but does tell you how to stop it.
