Nice photo.
You should work on it in post, mainly to remove that pink hue in the overblown area.
Here's what I did with darktable (it's just a quick edit, but still an improvement IMHO):

:/ I'm not sure if it's my screen but I'm not seeing a pink hue and can't actually see what's different with your edit.
How's this? Went back to the raw in Lightroom mobile because I'm familiar with it, previous edit was done in RawTherapee which is so much more complex.
Strage... I can clearly see pink both on my PC and phone (in the initial image, not this one).
Did you export the photo using the srgb color space?

Honestly, no idea. It took me about 5 minutes to work out how do export at all.
Do you find darktable easier to use?
Darktable is basically the only software I use so I can't really compare... it definitely does have a learning curve and it's quite technical (designed for nerds, by nerds), but (being a nerd myself) I find it rather natural to use.
In a sense darktable is more a collection of modules bound together in a framework than a monolithic/cohesive software. On one hand, this means you have to learn each module separately; on the other, it also means you can ignore most of the modules and only look at the handful you'll actually use.
Definitely do watch some tutorial to get started with darktable (if only, to understand the general workflow which modules you want to use).
