Watched this Utube Video , Really interesting . She a fan of Lightroom Classic , but wants to highlight the free and paid ( cheaper versions ) out there

Free :: Darktable ( Ive tried this ) , Rawtherapee , OM Workspace

Paid :: More $ to less , Capture One Pro , Luminar NEO , ON1 PhotoRAW ( does what Lightroom does )

My readings Lightroom ( Cloud Based ) , Lightroom Classic ( Desktop Based ) .

LightRoom is good for getting your photos organised into Catalogues etc , and the Develop tool is where you do your Post-Processing using all the tools available .

Dont know how Photoshop fits in , seems to be a separate program used by professional Photographers .
