What is expected
When Humility or cards with similar effects are on the battlefield (for example Overwhelming Splendor), Clone and similar cards won't get to copy any other creatures. It will ETB as itself.
CR 614.12. Some replacement effects modify how a permanent enters the battlefield. (See rules 614.1c–d.) Such effects may come from the permanent itself if they affect only that permanent (as opposed to a general subset of permanents that includes it). They may also come from other sources. To determine which replacement effects apply and how they apply, check the characteristics of the permanent as it would exist on the battlefield, taking into account replacement effects that have already modified how it enters the battlefield (see rule 616.1), continuous effects from the permanent’s own static abilities that would apply to it once it’s on the battlefield, and continuous effects that already exist and would apply to the permanent.
What actually happens
When the creature ETB, it will prompt its controller to choose which creature to be copied, which means the client still use the old pre-2017 CR 614.12
