So, Photos started up, but I'm stuck on the splash screen trying to promote iCloud photo library. The options are "use iCloud photo library" and "not now" along with a "learn more" link.

That learn more link works - it pops a Safari page, but the "not now" selection does not work.

I do not want to click the "use iCloud Photo".

The trouble is, the app can't be quit in this state (Quit is greyed out in the menu).

I guess I'll just have to force kill it.

Edit: if you try to quit it, it stops you and tell you "cannot quit while creating or opening a library".

So, it seems like the only way to get past this hostage taking situation is to accept iCloud Photo Library. I guess that's one way to pad the number of users.
