>>3094793
I hear Adobe Photoshop is pretty amazing

>>3094793
Photoshop or lightroom.

>>3094793
lightroom
photoshop is useful to have around too but lightroom makes your workflow much less painful

There is no need to suck Adobe's cock if you're a beginner
RawTherapee is fine

Raw conversion:
Two primary considerations are Lightroom and Capture One. The latter one is decidedly more for advanced users, but is superior in speed and output quality, however LR is an "all-in-one" solution which, for 90% of people, is good enough to cover their entire workflow from import to print.
Other software like RawTherapee and Irident Developer might provide results that are as good, but generally lack severely in the UI/UX department and feel like driving a car with a calculator.

Raster editor:
The two primary considerations here are Photoshop and Affinity Photo. Ps is an industry-standard workhorse, but is weighed down by decades of being built out to cover almost any possible use you could have a use for an image editor, making only 1/10th of the actual program useful for photography. One plus is that it comes with a pared-down version of Lightroom's Raw conversion engine, whereas Affinity currently has terrible Raw support.
Affinity Photo is very new, but it already covers most photo-related operations that Ps does in a package that's much faster and more responsive. More importantly, you don't have to deal with Adobe's bullshit cloud to use it, which actually goes for Lightroom as well.
Other image editors are leagues below these two and shouldn't be considered, unless it's specialized software that's specifically better at special types of processing; like image stacking, panos, 3D reconstruction, etc.
