Does anyone have a suggestion for PDF redacting? It's the only thing I need Acrobat for. And when I need it, it's very important.

I regularly use Nitro PRO for redaction. It's proprietary but I don't know of any OSS tools that focus on redaction. https://www.gonitro.com/pdf-pro
Can’t you copy the text, run a macro that replaces the targets with “redacted” and export the result to pdf?
