what photo editing program to Mac users use

There are so many photo editors to pick from. It will depend on what you primarily want to do.

I am particularly interested in improving the lighting and the colors of my photos, sharpening, noise reduction, and adding structure, blurring the background, correct the perspective, control the RAW developement. For this I like to use Luminar Neo. It is easy to use and very intuitive, and can be called as a photo editing extension from Photos. For additional graphics composition I like to use Graphics Converter, for Geo tagging and batch tagging I use Houdah Geo.

And to supplement Photos as DAM I am using Power Photos.

There are a hundred editors that you can use. These range from the barely capable - like Preview, already on your Mac, the quite capable like Photos, also on your Mac, up to Photoshop. So, what kind of editing do you do? What's your budget?
