The $9.99 plan entitles you to LRC, LR Cloud, PS, Bridge, Adobe Portfolio, LR and PS on IPad. In my opinion, LRC is the recommended LR flavor.

Just looking at plans available on my Adobe account and it appears that on the plan you listed for $9.99, the plan includes LR, but not LRC. I have used both and found the LR software leaves a bit to be desired from an editing perspective vs the LRC program, but that could just be my lack of technical know how. If the program you are talking about contained LRC I’d jump to it, because like many I find I seldom need the techniques available in PS.
That's incorrect. The Photographer's Package does include both the web-based Lightroom and the desktop Lightroom Classic. This is a list of the available apps that I have chosen not to install.

I agree with Dan. The $9.99 per month for Lightroom Classic would probably be perfect for you. I fought going to a subscription model for software for years and now I have subscriptions for the major ones - LRC, On1 and Luminar. Very happy with that decision and all of my software has the latest features.

While I'm an Adobe guy, I recognize the right of others to be different.
Mr. Pullum is not an Adobe guy and he has the right to do what he wants.
In support of his post, I would point out that many Adobe guys recommend LR/PS when someone asks about a postprocessing app, even when they specifically state they are not interested in either (1) Adobe or (2) subscription. Mr. Pullum is just putting the shoe on the other foot.
In my opinion, more information is always better. Even if the suggestion is not followed.

Right that makes sense. I should have added "and different purposes."How do you know which is more popular by subscriptions? You get both. And it’s not really any easier. The reason most of the help issues are with Classic is because most people use Classic.

I doin't know the exact numbers. However functionality, and articles I have read, tend to indicate the bigger user base is for the cloudy version. It competes with the likes of Apple Photos, and U-soft's version. That is a very large user base, much larger than pros and dedicated hobbyists. I have observed, Adobe continues to spend money on LR Cloud, and promote it, and not so much with Classic. Note in the Adobe Subscription marketing pics like the one posted above, LR is above Classic in the list and in one version of subscription it does not even appear.How do you know which is more popular by subscriptions?

I'm curious! What were the issues?
1. I misunderstood what I read here and downloaded Lr CC instead of classic.
2. Was having trouble connecting to my catalog. I called adobe support and he connected remotely andd was able t correct the situation.
3. I downloaded Ps then Ps beta. Some features of the beta version worked until I tried to move a toolbar from the middle of an image I was working on, at which time a whole lot of functions became unavailable. I plan to delete the app, then re-download.

...you obviously haven't USED the software, why denigrate those who do? I've been LR since the very beginning...just in the last year or so it's improved a light year, maybe more depending on your POV. *I* don't salute the "Adobe Flag" but you better believe I USE the program(s) with gusto...it's a badass tool and I for one appreciate every update. It's not an "ego-trip Adobe gotta have" as you classify it, and thankyewverymuch for the mass put-down.<big time shrug>

...you are going to have a freakin' blast; shoot, just switching between LR and PS effortlessly. When something goes awry (and it happens) You Tube is your friend.

I use PS a lot. Downloaded Beta just to check it out. Sometimes it does wonderful things. Sometimes it ties me in knots. But that's why it's Beta.
