Darktable is as much a Lightroom replacement as LibreOffice is an Excel replacement or Gimp is a Photoshop replacement, i.e. it absolutely is not.

Darktable is in the uncanny valley with its similarity to Lightroom. It looks like LR, so your habits kick in, only to get the cold shower that Darktable is not really LR and the thing you wanted to do you must do differently.
