And, most of all, it's 8 bit only.

Thanks for all your answers. I'll have a closer look at what has been
suggested.

Given that the original poster was at least considering a non-ransomware
version of Photoshop (which would almost certainly cost even more, and
would also not have free updates), Elements seemed to be worth mentioning.

I've been using Affinity Photo for the last few years. I've been very 
happy with it.

Affinity Photo is my favourite photo editing software for tasks where LR 
falls short, such as for focus stacking and object removal.

For 55 euro you get a copy with free future updates.

Photoshop Elements does everything you mention above (and a lot more).
I suspect the UI will be quite familiar to anyone used to Photoshop.
