Well I'm a power user (8,000+ photos) and I love it. I guess it helps that my most recent photos are ones that I actually edited...on other days, I might do a photo dump of something dull, which would make for an ugly looking homepage.
Me too (4,000 photos). I had recently let my Pro account expire in favor of just posting to G+, but now I'll probably start uploading again. (Of course, G+ also just changed their photo support last week.)
