I just want to add that Resolve is an amazing product no matter how you pay for it. For beginners and professionals alike. You will constantly need help using Premiere and you’ll never think you’re using it right because it’s a sum of mismatch concepts and dead ends. Resolve has a comprehensive design so you can learn how to use it and keep using it that way because the entire software supports those concepts.

I've found Premire pretty intuitive, mostly, to be honest. Glad to hear Resolve is great though :)
I make good money, and so dropping $20 on something for a new hobby is something I do without thinking, but $295 is something I have to consider. And I'm a software developer who makes a decent salary. It's more than 10x the cost. It takes fifteen months before that breaks even.

I'm not a Linux user, so this isn't something I particularly care about these days.
Something I didn't talk about in the original post: I did try a few $0 editing programs at first, and I know that DaVinci Resolve stacks up pretty okay here, but one of the main reasons I went with Premire is how easy it is to get help with virtually everything, given how widely it's used. As someone who is at the "I don't even know what I don't know" stage, that's a real advantage. This isn't part of the whole "monthly fee SaaS vs one-time license" aspect of things, but it did factor into my overall decision.
